TActivity Report [SPARC Japan Seminar 2012]


During fiscal 2012, we held seven rounds of SPARC Japan Seminars as shown below. We would like to take this opportunity to express our thanks to those who were engaged in the planning of seminars, those who served lecturers and moderators, and all the people who participated in the seminars.

SPARC Japan Seminars for fiscal 2013 are still under planning but we are hoping to share and exchange views with those individuals concerned on Open Access as well as on the latest trends in Japan and overseas. We will announce plans and schedules on our website as they become available.
