A Legacy of Pioneering Open Science

This week I had the pleasure of presenting Plan P, a groundbreaking new initiative from JMIR Publications, at the AGMB 2024 conference in Mainz, Germany.  Plan P is set to revolutionize the way scientific research is published and shared.

JMIR Publications is thrilled to be part of the AGMB 2024 conference, where German medical librarians are gathering to shape the future of health information. The conference's motto, "Health information Efficient. Digital. Innovative," aligns with our mission to advance digital health research and innovation.

The recent Bibliocon 2024 conference was a valuable opportunity for JMIR Publications to connect with librarians and discuss the evolving landscape of open access (OA) publishing. Here's a recap of our key takeaways:

We are delighted to announce JMIR Publications will be participating at the 112th Bibliocon, set to take place at the Congress Center Hamburg (CCH), Germany, from June 4th to 7th, 2024. As steadfast advocates for advancing scholarly communication and disseminating knowledge, we look forward to meeting with the community of librarians, information professionals, and researchers attending this event.

David Kim, Director of Partnerships and Open Access Research at JMIR Publications, is set to represent the organization at the highly anticipated UKSG Annual Conference 2024, to be held in Glasgow, UK, from April 8th to April 10th, 2024.

JMIR Publications is excited to be headed to the American Psychiatric Association 2024 Annual Meeting. The conference will take place in New York City from May 4 to 8, 2024.
