In the apocalyptic publishing era, one area of publishing has not only survived but has risen from the ashes: STM publishing (Science, Technical and Medical). This is mainly visible in the rapid growth in budgets for academic libraries over the last 15years or so.
But, so many publishing roles and functions have been blurred or actually obliterated by new technology that a deep analysis of future publishing trends by publishing experts and other visionary thinkers, both in business and academics, is needed.
One such deep analysis (O'Rielly's TOC 2011) is taking place February 14-16, 2011 at the Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers in New York City.

Publisher O'Reilly Media, US, has announced that the forthcoming O'Reilly Tools of Change (TOC) for Publishing Conference will explore the new world of publishing without boundaries. The event is scheduled for February 14 - 16, 2011 at the Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers in New York City.
Programme chairs Andrew Savikas and Kat Meyer have announced the programme for TOC, which will bring together stakeholders from the global book publishing and technology ecosystems. TOC's programme will seek to integrate the visionary with the proven and practical, bringing together the people who are shaping publishing's future. This year the conference will reportedly feature topics that push the boundaries of how we define 'publishing', and insight into what's next for the publishing industry.
