Abstract

This Workshop is the result of a long-term (and successful) effort of a group of Italian librarians and Institutions who are pursuiting the goal of innovation in the Italian e-publishing environment. At the Workshop Rectors and delegates from 31 Universities and the Istituto Italiano di Medicina Sociale signed the Messina Declaration, declaring "to agree to the 'Berlin Declaration on Open Access to knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities' and wishing that this act will represent just the first and significant contribution from Italian Universities to a broader and faster dissemination of scientific knowledge".
