Scholarly communication

The aim of these seminars is to put in common our experiences in a new professional framework; to acknowledge the enormous effects that the new economic and scholarly communication management models have for our institutions and to outline concrete proposals which will be able to solve these new problems.

The recommendations and the conclusions of the first seminar (Madrid, 2002) have been sent to the European Commission, to scientific and political authorities and to the UNICA members.
