The outside view
A meeting ground founded in 1978 for every trade in scholarly communication, from publishers and librarians to editors, printers and technologists, kept running by member volunteers who bring the whole chain to one table each year to ask what should endure and what must change.

Their shape
The Parliament
Argued into being, and stronger for it.
The Parliament earns its decisions through debate and the vote, governed by and for its members. Its gift is legitimacy and broad buy-in, its challenge is the speed lost to deliberation.
Also reads toward The Guild and The Frontier.
