*Michiana Scholarly Communication Librarianship Conference*



2014 theme:  Scholarly Communication on a Shoestring: Launching scholarly
communication programs at small and medium-sized university libraries



Indiana University South Bend and Saint Mary’s College are proud to
announce the *Michiana Scholarly Communication Librarianship Conference*,
to be held on October 20, 2014.  The only conference aimed specifically at
small and mid-sized university libraries, the Michiana Scholarly
Communication Librarianship Conference is ideal for librarians at
institutions interested in launching a scholarly communication program.  It
is also a great opportunity for librarians currently working with scholarly
communication initiatives to network and share experiences, best practices
and ideas.  This conference will feature presentations by a variety of
experts in scholarly communication*s* as well as smaller roundtable
discussions.



Presenters include:

*Lee Van Orsdel. *The conference Keynote Speaker has been the Dean of
University Libraries at Grand Valley State University in Allendale,
Michigan, since 2005. In 2012 the GVSU library won the ACRL’s Excellence In
Academic Libraries Award. She previously held positions at Eastern Kentucky
University, the University of Montevallo, and Samford University.  She
spent almost five years at EBSCO’s international headquarters working with
major libraries in the Southeast. For sixteen years she co-authored *Library
Journal*’s annual study of journal pricing, expanding it to include an
ongoing analysis of the open access movement and its effect on traditional
journal publishing. A frequent writer and speaker on scholarly
communications reform, Van Orsdel is a founding member of the ARL/ACRL
Institute on Scholarly Communications and a member of the SPARC Steering
Committee.


*Jere Odell* is a Scholarly Communications librarian at the IUPUI Center
for Digital Scholarship.   He promotes and supports open access publishing
practices including the library's open access publishing fund, open journal
system and institutional repository initiatives. In addition to advocating
for new forms of scholarly communications, he provides education and
consultation services relevant to authorship, metrics for impact, fair use
and authors' rights. Prior to joining University Library, Jere worked as an
embedded librarian in the IU Center for Bioethics, where he managed a
special collection of bioethics resources while collaborating on
information ethics, research ethics, community engagement and health policy
projects.


*Nazareth A. Pantaloni, III, J.D., M.S., Ph.D.*

Nazareth Pantaloni is the Copyright Program Librarian in the Scholarly
Communication Department of the Indiana University-Bloomington Libraries.
He previously worked as Assistant Director for Copyright and Administration
at the William and Gayle Cook Music Library, where he was responsible for
music copyright and licensing at the Indiana University Jacobs School of
Music. Before working at IU, he worked as a law librarian and library
administrator at Temple, Princeton, Villanova, Rutgers and Cornell
Universities, and the University of Pennsylvania.
