The PSP Committee for Digital Innovation (CDI) is introducing another Seminar Series on Selected Topics in Digital Publishing. In this series of seminars, speakers will explore the major challenges to serving today’s scholars, the common mistakes that well-meaning publishers make, and tested strategies for delivering precisely the right content when, where, and how users need it. Publishers must dare to be visionary, flexible, and learn from any failures to succeed in meeting users’ real needs, whether they know them or not.

The series begins on Wednesday, October 21st at the Association of American Publishers (AAP) New York office and the topic is: Who is the Customer and Who is the User? The speaker is Peter Kaufman, Associate Director, Columbia Center for New Media Teaching and Learning (CCNMTL). Each 90-minute session focuses on an important current issue in electronic publishing and offers a 45-minute presentation followed by a 45-minute Q&A with discussion. All sessions will run from 12:00 – 1:30 p.m. and a light lunch will be provided for those attending in person. To register online, click here.
