The title of this years conference is Electronic Publishing - New Models and Opportunities. There will be two parallel streams: one on technical issues; and the other on socio-economic issues. There will also be plenary sessions for papers and discussions that cover the whole of electronic publishing. A major underlying theme of the conference is the promotion of an 'exchange of experience' between the participants - especially between academics researching in the area and publishers and others with practical experience. All papers have been refereed to ensure high quality. We are particularly pleased to welcome our two invited speakers: Professor David Brailsford, Department of Computer Science, University of Nottingham, and Editor of the journal Electronic Publishing; and Dr Andrew Odlyzko, AT&T Research Labs, and author of Tragic Loss or Good Riddance - The Demise of Traditional Scholarly Journals. Professor Jack Meadows of Loughborough University, Chairman of the Programme Committee, said of the conference "We intend that this conference be a stimulating experience, with a great deal of cross fertilisation of ideas. The combination of practical experience and the latest discoveries of academic research will undoubtedly lead to new models of academic and other publication in the near future."
