Dear Professional, 

It gives us immense pleasure to inform you that 'Advanced Centre for 
Treatment, Research and Education Cancer' (ACTREC) in association with the 
Institute of Scientometrics (IoS) is organizing 'National Conference on 
Scholarly Communication and Scientometrics' (IoS 2019)  (
https://ios2019.wixsite.com/conference) during 22-23 November 2019 at 
ACTREC, Navi Mumbai. 

The theme of the conference is focusing on the landscape of scholarly 
communication, which has undergone tremendous change over the last two 
decades adding more dimensions and complexion to it. It has thrown a great 
challenge for library and information science professionals to manage 
dynamic online resources.  Similarly, it is equally critical for 
policymakers to evaluate the research contributions contributed by 
researchers in peer-reviewed journals and various other sources using 
metrics and trending tools.   

In the past, IoS has organized seven conferences in a series from 2012, 
which were proved to be great contributors to the knowledge of metrics and 
sharing new ideas on various quality indicators to measure science. It is 
the 8th conference under this series, we wish to continue this trend by 
way of contributing newer ideas to the landscape of research metrics and 
scholarly communication. IoS 2019 is expected to bring a galaxy of 
speakers from Subject Experts, Researchers, Academicians, Library and 
Information Science professionals, Students, Policy Makers and other 
administrators who are engaged in measuring the quality of science. 

The conference will have: 

Plenary talks, Keynote Presentations, Thematic Events, Collaborative 
Learning, and Networking
