Expectations
- One short meeting per month where we share updates and insights from the various sub-committees, with occasional communication in between, which happens via our SSP forum
- Sub-committees decide between themselves how often to meet; we ask that at least one representative from each sub-committee attends the monthly CEC call or contributes a written update that can be shared.
The CEC aligns with Community and Inclusivity in bringing diverse stakeholders across the scholarly publishing industry together to contribute wide-ranging perspectives that increase opportunity and improve peer relationships. The CEC incorporates DEIA in all its activities and programs and makes a home for scholarly communications professionals at every career stage worldwide. We strive to improve and expand the notion of community for every SSP member!
- Expand your professional network outside your organization
- Develop new skills and gain new experiences – lead a sub-committee, organize an event, attend committee meetings either to contribute ideas or hear from other members
- Contribute insights and ideas that result in improved resources and education for the wider scholarly publishing community
