SUMMARY:Is it time to change scholarly publishing as we know it?
DESCRIPTION:How eLife aims to increase equity and transparency in journals 
 through a new model of peer review\, preprints\, and open access\n\n 
 \n\nScholarly journals evolved in a print world where they had to be 
 selective and do a lot of review and filtering up front\, because of 
 physical limitations on how much they could publish and distribute. In a 
 digital world\, these constraints are no longer necessary\, opening up 
 space for innovation and improvements. Nowhere is this clearer than in the 
 recent growth of preprints\, where authors take control of when to share 
 their work. But in a world where preprints are commonplace\, what is the 
 role of the journal? eLife\, a not-for-profit\, peer-reviewed\, open access 
 scientific journal for the biomedical and life sciences\, has been 
 exploring this question\, and recently announced new changes to its model 
 to focus on detailed preprint assessment instead of binary accept/reject 
 decisions. This lead to a great deal of discussion in the community about 
 how journals could or should work\, and the pros and cons of this kind of 
 model for researchers\, research assessment\, and science more broadly. 
 Damian Pattinson\, Executive Director of eLife\, will be in Durham on 
 Monday March 20\, and will join members of the Duke community to explain 
 the new eLife model\, what it aims to do\, and to engage us in conversation 
 about it. Come with your questions and ideas\, and learn more about a 
 potential new model for scholarly journal publishing.\n\nThis event will be 
 held in The Edge Workshop Room (Room 127) on the first floor of Bostock 
 Library on Duke's West Campus. It is open to members of the Duke community 
 and anyone interested in this topic.\n\nThis will be an in-person event. 
 Registration is not required - just show up! Masking is encouraged.
