Programme 備註：這是代理商協會的年會，滿有趣的，期刊代理商們如EBSCO, SWETS都有參加
簡述：How the purchasing decision is taken, and the many factors that go to making the correct decision for a specific organisation are largely hidden as far as suppliers are concerned. However, it is important that they understand the process, the often conflicting concerns and the practical realities of decision taking in libraries if they are to match their pricing, services and value offers to meet the customers' requirements. This conference is all about making the purchasing decision and the factors that influence it. There are presentations from the world's leading experts on purchasing by libraries and consortia, the impact of new technology and standards on usage, how publishers try and match price to expectations, and the impact of the new discovery techniques on acquisitions and the form that they might take in the future. This conference will greatly increase our understanding of how purchasing and pricing decisions are taken, and the influence this may have on future acquisitions, sales and service. It is designed as a meeting ground for all involved in this decision making process -- publishers, librarians, agents and intermediaries.

CERN機構的解釋，可參考看看。
簡述:
The OAI series of workshops is one of the biggest international meetings of technical repository-developers, library Open Access policy formulators, and the funders and researchers that they serve. The programme contains a mix of practical tutorials given by experts in the field, presentations from cutting-edge projects and research, posters from the community, breakout discussion groups, and an intense social programme which has helped to build a strong network amongst previous participants. The event is almost unique in bringing together these scholarly communication communities and is proud to continue this tradition with the OAI5 workshop in 2007.

簡述：We believe we understand current “information behaviors” of scientists, clinicians and professionals. Are there likely consequences of generational changes in behavior, expectations and available information resources in the not so distant future?
The STM Spring 2007 meeting is being held in Cambridge//Boston – a world center of scientific excellence. We are taking advantage of this venue to explore some of these emerging issues, while maintaining a characteristic STM viewpoint on practical end points.
