ELPUB 2010
Publishing in the networked world: transforming the nature of communication
14th International Conference on Electronic Publishing 16 - 18 June 
2010, Helsinki, Finland

Publishing is transformed by new channels for electronic communication. 
Publishing is increasingly taking place in the social spaces using the 
Internet and mobile technologies, which is largely due to the 
convergence of communication, audio, video and mobile technologies. New 
publishing models enable individuals, scholars, communities and networks 
to establish contacts, exchange data, produce information, and share 
knowledge in various formats regardless of temporal and spatial 
restrictions and the types of devices used.

New opportunities and new needs in research challenge us to create an 
infrastructure also for research data in electronic format. The ELPUB 
2010 conference will focus on key issues in electronic publishing such 
as the methods by which research documents and user-generated content 
can be published through formal channels as well as through social 
networks. It will discuss the requirements for a sound infrastructure 
that can handle the electronic publishing of various forms (e.g., audio, 
video, or real-time) that increasingly takes place in the social sphere 
along with the business models to be employed.

We welcome a wide variety of papers from members of the communities 
whose research and/or development work are transforming the nature of 
electronic publishing and scholarly communications. Topics include but 
are not restricted to:

ABOUT ELPUB: The ELPUB 2010 conference will keep the tradition of the 
previous international conferences on electronic publishing, held in the 
United Kingdom (in 1997 and 2001), Hungary (1998), Sweden (1999), Russia 
(2000), the Czech Republic (2002), Portugal (2003), Brazil (2004), 
Belgium (2005), Bulgaria (2006), Austria (2007), Canada (2008) and Italy

those interested in issues regarding electronic publishing in a wide 
variety of contexts. These include the human, cultural, economic, 
social, technological, legal, commercial, and other relevant aspects 
that such an exciting theme encompasses. Three distinguishing features 
of this conference are: broad scope of topics which creates a unique 
atmosphere of active exchange and learning about various aspects of 
scholarly communications and electronic publishing; combination of 
general and technical issues; and a condensed procedure of submission, 
revision and publication of proceedings which guarantees presentations 
of most recent work. ELPUB 2010 will offer a variety of activities, such 
as workshops, tutorials, poster presentations and demonstrations. Social
