HighWire Press" - Internet Imprint of the Stanford University Libraries

Online Information 2001 show nears

HighWire Press will be on show in London later this year.

In December more than 350 companies at the very cutting edge of information technology will gather in the Olympia exhibition centre in London in what has become over the last quarter of a century the largest single show of its kind in the world.

The exhibition and conference, Online Information 2001, is once again being staged by Oxford-based Learned Information.

The exhibitors will be from around the world as well as there being many British representatives. Countries represented will include the Netherlands, Finland, Germany, France, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Switzerland, Belgium, Italy and Ireland.

Key speakers from Britain and further afield also will be sharing the latest news and views at scheduled conference sessions.

Here is what the Charleston Advisor said about HighWire in its September 2000 review:
EXCERPT: The quality of the content at HighWire Press, from Web design to functionality, and scientific content, is unprecedented. The journal content represents some of the most desired society and non-profit press titles in the world... High performance and innovation are evident, as are dependable publication schedules, and dependable availability. There is no scheduled down time.

HighWire has consistently maintained cutting-edge and industry-standard technical capabilities, in networking, search engines, and other technologies such as selective advertisements for regions, IP-range authentication, distributed management of local campus definitions, and collection of use data... HighWire is an exciting Website to watch. New journals are added so frequently that it is like opening gifts to visit the site.

HighWire Press has accomplished for librarianship and scholarly communication what seemed impossible to many in the library community in recent years. We asked for a different model and Stanfords HighWire Press gave it to us. They gave us not just a model but also a viable, high-quality, state-of-the-art online library with many of the worlds most sought after scientific journal titles."
