The preliminary program

has something for everyone, with sessions covering a wide range of trends
and challenges in the information community. Here’s just a sampling of what
speakers will cover:

   -

   Complying with changing accessibility regulations
   -

   Developing new ways to think about and manage metadata
   -

   Innovations supporting open research and advancing research integrity
   -

   Addressing the growing use of rapidly evolving AI technology in
   scholarly communications

In the NISO Plus tradition, each session incorporates interactivity and
conversation, allowing presenters and attendees to propose potential
solutions. It's a unique opportunity to speak to and learn from colleagues
across scholarly communications, and we're looking forward to hearing your
ideas, especially as we begin our work on advancing standards for AI
interoperability
