3:45 - 4:30	Closing keynote by Jason Monberg, Vice President of Product Management, Mark Logic Corporation The New Speed of Publishing Publishing is as much about real-time consumption and interaction across a landscape of devices as it is about the content. Whether buying a text book, searching journal articles, or perusing tweets and Facebook updates, people expect to interact with content in real-time. This holds true regardless of location or device. Publishers must not only support the drive towards real-time and location aware interaction across devices, they must lead the way. Jason will discuss how the need for real-time consumption is driving real-time solutions in the publishing industry and how publishers are taking advantage of this fundamental shift throughout the lifecycle of their content.
4:30 - 6:30	Happy hour sponsored by TEMIS
