Information Access Seminar: Authorship and Identity September 7, 2007

Speaker: Clifford Lynch, I School and CNI

In this talk, I'll look at various developments in scholarly communication (citation indexing, web statistics gathering, preprint archives); in identity management; and in name authority control. My fundamental thesis will be that there is an opportunity to begin to deliberately and systematically relate and potentally converge developments in these different areas; I'll lead a discussion of the issues and actors that might be involved in doing so.
