You are invited to learn about multilingual publishing with Open Journal Systems on Tuesday, May 7th, from 11 – 11:45 AM MDT at this free webinar, open to everyone. The following was originally published on the University of Alberta Library’s event page.

Join us for the next Open Publishing Editorial Lunch and Learn on Multilingual Publishing. This session will be presented by Emma Uhl from the Public Knowledge Project (PKP) and will focus on the benefits, challenges, publishing options, how-to steps, and best practices for basic multilingual metadata use in OJS.

The Public Knowledge Project (PKP) strives to increase access and reach of scholarly publishing. Decentralizing English and promoting publishing in multiple languages is one way to encourage all of those involved at every step in the publishing process to engage with valuable research that might otherwise be overlooked.
