Inflection Point: Setting the Course for the Future of Scholarly Communication

Huge growth in proposals and publications, a greater focus on researchers as both author and reader, evolving open access publishing models, and the urgent need for equity and inclusion are disrupting traditional publishing infrastructure and processes.  In addition, the explosive capabilities of artificial intelligence will likely disrupt every facet of scholarly communication, but represent both opportunities and threats.  We are at an inflection point—our decisions will determine both the value we deliver as an industry, as well as the values we reflect as a community. 

As always, the SSP community continues to focus on bringing together academics, funders, librarians, publishers, service providers, technologists, researchers and countless others with a communal interest and stake in disseminating scholarly information. We look to the 46th Annual Meeting as an opportunity to continue this tradition and welcome all colleagues and community stakeholders.
