[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

**Apologies for cross posting**

Tackling a problem in scholarly communications? Whether you have a solution
to propose or just want to brainstorm with others, our NISO Plus Baltimore
conference <https://niso.plus/niso-plus-2026-baltimore/> (February 16–18)
is the place to start a conversation! And if you want to help us set the
agenda, the call for proposals <https://forms.gle/AMaLAXh57UazA7Ju5> is now
open through October 17. It’s a great opportunity to meet and collaborate
with information professionals across the community to address the most
pressing issues in scholarly communications.

Each session at NISO Plus Baltimore will include time dedicated to q&a and
discussion, and as with all NISO Plus conferences, ideas emerging from the
meeting will help to shape conversations about future NISO standards and
projects. Broad topics of interest include (but aren't limited to) the
following:

   -

   AI and emerging technologies
   -

   Archiving and preservation
   -

   Global issues
   -

   Metadata and persistent identifiers
   -

   Metrics
   -

   Multilingualism in scholarly communication
   -

   Open scholarship and open access
   -

   Identity, access, and privacy
   -

   Peer review
   -

   Research infrastructure
   -

   Research integrity and ethics
   -

   Sustainability

We encourage session proposals from professionals across the information
community—librarians, publishers, service and tech providers, researchers,
and others.
The most successful proposals will encourage interactivity and audience
participation;  we also strongly encourage proposals that reflect a variety
of perspectives—geographical, organizational, functional, etc. (We
therefore recommend that you include either confirmed speakers or examples
of who you might invite.)

The closing date for proposals is October 17, 2025, after which they will
be anonymized before being reviewed by the NISO Plus 2025–26 Planning
Committee. We will notify everyone submitting a proposal of the committee's
decision by the first week of November. In the meantime, we look
forward to hearing
from you <https://forms.gle/5HqBW5KecfiipnV57>!  Best wishes,

The NISO Team
