Once again, SSP has created a stellar line-up of continuing education seminars!  Take a break and join us in Washington, DC November 18-20. Topics will include:

• Managing the editorial and production process
• Choosing an electronic hosting platform
• Best practices in e-journal publication
• Targeting new global markets for e-content
• Why can’t licensing scholarly content be simple?

All seminars will be held at the Center for Association Leadership in Washington, DC. More information about each seminar, including speakers and registration, is available on the SSP Events page. We look forward to seeing you in Washington, DC!

What a great event this was! The 2008 Top Management Roundtable: Constant Content and Autonomous Authors meeting may be history, but that doesn't mean you can't continue talking about it. Visit the TMR 2008 blog for more discussion and insights into how the era of empowered authors is changing the way publishers think and work.
