The atmosphere was charged with excitement and possibility as business transformed from virtual to face-to-face. It was a wonderful event - one which the whole <em>Research Information</em> team thoroughly enjoyed.</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>You probably have read the</span><a href="https://www.researchinformation.info/news/see-you-frankfurt-book-fair"><span> pre-event take</span></a><span> on relevant themes. So further to that, here is <em>Research Information</em>’s analysis of additional key scholarly themes and takeaways.</span></p> <h2 dir="ltr"><span>#1 The article-based economy</span></h2> <p dir="ltr"><span>What is the article-based economy? Simply put, it's the open science, open data and open research, where there isn't such a substantial gap between the various stakeholders. The panel for this discussion included the following experts in academic publishing:</span></p> <ul><li><span>Olaf Ernst (Oable, Chief Solutions Officer)</span></li> <li><span>Liz Ferguson (Wiley, Senior Vice President, Research Publishing)</span></li> <li><span>Sven Fund (Knowledge Unlatched, Senior Director)</span></li> <li><span>Philipp Hess (ResearchGate, Head of Publisher Relations)</span></li> <li><span>Tobias Kuhn (Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, Assistant Professor)</span></li> <li><span>Dr Irina Sens (TIB - Leibniz Information Center for Science and Technology, Head of Library Operations)</span></li> </ul><p dir="ltr"><span>In this open model, dissemination of information happens at an article level, where researchers are publishing individual pieces of research, which then creates an opportunity for publishers to align with trending topics rather than pitching whole journals to libraries. This essentially involves new models and new technology, but more importantly, increased collaboration. Publishers and libraries need to start talking again, and solve problems together – especially with regards to open data, science and  research.</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>We are currently in the middle of this open access transformation, so there will be a lot of activity to be seen in this area, such as making articles machine-readable. Researchers weren't going to naturally make the transition to new models over the tried-and-tested methods. In fact, Wiley have done lots of work around this with different stakeholders by aligning with those that are wanting to change but looking for the path. And it’s not just a financial transaction with funders or institutions etc. – authors can now benefit from open access too. </span></p> <h2 dir="ltr"><span>#2 Measuring impact</span></h2> <p dir="ltr"><span>It was interesting to hear about the exciting updates from Clarivate and the accelerated need for analytics to drive research workflows and engagement. This was seen in how the pandemic created a need for open access to research in academic library sector. F<span>ollowing the introduction of the field-normalised JCI last year, Clarivate are extending the Journal Impact Factor to the entire Web of Science Core Collection and it will only appear to one decimal place</span></span><span>. We heard from the following speakers:</span></p> <ul><li><span>Julie Carroll-Davis (Clarivate, Senior Vice President of Global Content)</span></li> <li><span><span><span>Dr Nandita Quaderi (Clarivate , Editor-in-Chief &amp; Editorial VP of the Web of Science)</span></span></span></li> <li>Ellie Souster (Taylor &amp; Francis, Head of Transformative Agreements)</li> </ul><p><span>Trends</span></p> <ul><li><span>Accelerated need for analytics to drive research workflows and engagement</span></li> <li><span>The pandemic created a need for open access to research in the academic library sector</span></li> <li><span>Having a clearer idea of the pipeline for 2023 was a priority for many of the publishers and other stakeholders in the publishing industry, owing to the after-effects of the pandemic</span></li> </ul><h3 dir="ltr"><span>Challenges</span></h3> <ul><li><span>Library budget uncertainty</span></li> <li><span>New funder mandates</span></li> <li><span>Adapting to change and solutions</span></li> <li><span>Working methods such as hybrid, remote etc. gaining popularity </span></li> </ul><p>Taylor &amp; Francis’ range of publishing options help researchers to choose open access, increasing the reach and impact of knowledge. They partner with institutions worldwide to help researchers publish open access in their chosen journals at minimal cost, which opens up research across a diverse range of subject areas. These are the key findings that were shared on the impact of research made open through global transformative agreements. They doing interesting work in their transformative agreement portfolio and report growth in their open access articles citations and altmetric-tracked citations.</p> <h2 dir="ltr"><span>#3 Issues and outlook for the publishing industry</span></h2> <p dir="ltr"><span>There was a special roundtable talk from the directors of book fairs from across the world. We heard from the following leaders in publishing:</span></p> <ul><li><span>Eva Orue, Director of the Madrid Book Fair</span></li> <li><span>Rex How, Chairman of the Taipei International Book Exhibition</span></li> <li><span>Mamadou Aliou Sow, Director of Conakry International Children's Book Fair</span></li> <li><span>Yoel Makov, Director of the Jerusalem International Book Forum</span></li> <li><span>Porter Anderson, Editor-in-Chief, Publishing Perspectives (moderator)</span></li> </ul><p dir="ltr"><span>The overall message was a call to focus on the demand from the existing market, especially post-pandemic, rather than expanding right away. While this was a message to the overall publishing industry, the following issues and prospects still apply to the scholarly community.</span></p> <h3 dir="ltr"><span>Current obstacles</span></h3> <p dir="ltr"><span>1. Pricing models</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>2. Funding the re-establishment of book fairs</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>3. Cooperation across the global communities involved in book publishing and book fairs</span></p> <h3 dir="ltr"><span>Future perspectives</span></h3> <p dir="ltr"><span>1. Intensification of the market - more people creating and consuming published work</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>2. Greater presence and power of African and Asian publishers</span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>3. Less separation of professional and public aspects of book fairs around the world: bringing professional work and cultural significance together</span></p> <p dir="ltr">To conclude, there is most certainly a feeling of promise for this significant, global industry. There have been challenges in the past few years but there are even more opportunities for organisations, academics and librarians in the very near future. Look out for a plethora of launches, updates and proposals from many stakeholders related to the scholarly community on the <em>Research Information</em> news page.</p> <p dir="ltr"><em>Annabel Ola - Editor, Research Information</em></p> </div></div></div><div class="field field-name-field-company field-type-taxonomy-term-reference field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><a href="/company/frankfurt-buchmesse" typeof="skos:Concept" property="rdfs:label skos:prefLabel" datatype="">Frankfurt Buchmesse</a></div></div></div> Sat, 22 Oct 2022 00:00:05 +0000 Annabel Ola 17640 at https://www.researchinformation.info See you at the Frankfurt Book Fair https://www.researchinformation.info/news/see-you-frankfurt-book-fair <div class="field field-name-field-image field-type-image field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even"><img typeof="foaf:Image" src="https://www.researchinformation.info/sites/default/files/styles/medium/public/content/news-story/lead-image/shutterstock_1378090952.jpg?itok=M3P5q9DZ" width="220" height="147" alt="" /></div></div></div><div class="field field-name-body field-type-text-with-summary field-label-hidden"><div class="field-items"><div class="field-item even" property="content:encoded"><p><span id="docs-internal-guid-bf6e1ad1-7fff-a6d8-b2b6-4ed18f934d09"><span><em>Research Information</em> is returning to the Frankfurt Book Fair in person for the first time in three years. <span id="docs-internal-guid-13bc17a3-7fff-4201-a27f-ca386f1f09c7"><span>Here are some of the key highlights that we think will be the most relevant for the scholarly research community and some information on updates from us during the event.</span></span></span></span></p> <h2 dir="ltr"><span>While you are there, look out for these key themes</span></h2> <ol><li dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.buchmesse.de/en/press/press-releases/2022-09-14-beyond-publishers-new-facets-global-book-business-today"><span>Beyond publishers</span></a><span> </span></p> </li> </ol><p dir="ltr"><span>In recent years, the ways in which authors disseminate their research have sparked highly innovative methods of creation, expanding what books, publishing and reading encompasses today:</span></p> <ul><li dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr"><span>Authors are building their digital footprint</span></p> </li> <li dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr"><span>Cooperation between digital platforms and retailers have become well established practices</span></p> </li> <li dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr"><span>New business models have emerged, as </span><a href="https://www.researchinformation.info/feature/possibilities-open-science"><span>Research Information recently covered</span></a></p> </li> </ul><ol start="2"><li dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr"><a href="https://www.buchmesse.de/en/press/press-releases/2022-09-08-focus-ukraine-voices-and-events-frankfurter-buchmesse-2022"><span>A focus on Ukraine</span></a><span> </span></p> </li> </ol><p dir="ltr"><span>Carried out with support from Germany’s Federal Foreign Office, there will be a special programme that brings together publishers, editors, licencing managers etc. from Armenia, Azerbaijan, the Czech Republic, Georgia, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Slovakia and Ukraine. </span></p> <p dir="ltr"><span>In addition, the academic journal </span><a href="https://www.bwv-verlag.de/osteuropazeitschrift"><span>OSTEUROPA </span></a><span>(Berlin) is dedicating its special issue on “Culture in Times of War” to the topic of Ukraine, which will cover topics including an analysis of the book market where publishers from Kharkiv, Kyiv und Lviv report on producing books in times of war. </span></p> <ol start="3"><li dir="ltr"> <p dir="ltr"><a href="https://publishingperspectives.com/pp-forum/"><span>Current data and accessibility</span></a></p> </li> </ol><p dir="ltr"><span>At the Publishing Perspectives Forum Expert talks, leaders from the global publishing industry will discuss challenges and analyse trends transforming the sector.
