NISO Plus 2023 Recordings Are Now Available

September 2023

The fifth NISO Plus conference is happening February 13–14, 2024, in Baltimore, and registration will open soon. In the meantime, you can still access prior NISO Plus content, including sessions and keynotes from the February 2023 meeting—recordings have been posted to our video library and are now available and open to all

The 2023 program featured content of interest to everyone in scholarly communications, including panels on advancing DEIA in the information community, metadata, open access, and peer review. According to our post-event survey, these were the most popular concurrent sessions:

Another key strength of the 2023 NISO Plus conference was its international focus. There were thought-provoking keynotes from around the world: David Weinberger (Americas) on Unanticipated Metadata in the Age of the Net and the Age of AI, Caleb Kibet (EMEA) on Unlocking Open Science in Africa, and Yuko Harayama (APAC) on [how] To Keep Knowledge Creation as an Open and Global Enterprise. Panel sessions included content of global interest as well. For example, speakers from the information community in APAC shared their thoughts and experiences on How APAC Countries Are Approaching National OA Policies and the Value Proposition of Information Standards.

The NISO Plus meeting also featured the popular annual Miles Conrad Lecture and Awards Ceremony. Our 2023 awardee was Safiya Umoja Noble, Professor of Gender Studies and African American Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles. Dr. Noble’s talk on Decolonizing Standards: A Provocation is to date our most-watched recording from the conference and is well worth a viewing. And of course, what would the NISO Plus conference be without NISO standards? The 2023 conference program included two sessions dedicated to updates on a number of standards and projects, including the Communication of Retractions, Removals, and Expressions of Concern (CREC), the Interoperable System of Controlled Digital Lending (IS-CDL), and many more. 

Stay tuned for the latest updates on NISO Plus Baltimore, and in the meantime, enjoy our NISO Plus 2023 content! Remember that all recordings have full transcripts and are available on demand at your convenience, 24/7.
