We are pleased to announce Dan Morgan of the University of California Press as the joint keynote speaker for the Library Publishing Forum 2016 and Open Access Symposium 2016. Morgan is Digital Science Publisher at the University of California Press, and the Publisher of Collabra, the Press’ new value-sharing OA journal. He joined UC Press in June 2014 to focus on mission-driven, not-for-profit, digital initiatives. He has worked in scholarly publishing for over 13 years, in publishing management, research, open access, and strategy roles. All of that time was at Elsevier where he ended up the head of the Psychology and Cognitive Sciences journals department, then Senior Manager for Open Access and other outreach for North America. He is a passionate advocate for open access, open science, and advancing scholarly communication. When he isn't thinking about Collabra he enjoys playing guitars in bands, films, craft cocktails, espionage novels, and dogs. Twitter Handle: @djjmorgan
