Whether you are an author, a journal editorial office, a publisher, or a funder, ensuring compliance with an ever-changing set of policies and guidelines can seem like an impossible quest. This session presents an actual quest: join our intrepid adventurers/panelists as they travel from Policy City to the elusive and potentially mythical Castle of Researcher Compliance. Can they defeat the three headed troll of conflicting instructions? Will the wizard of Machine Learning help them or hinder them? And if they do reach Compliance, will there be any treasure to cover their costs? The adventurers boast expertise in arcane areas such as Open Access policies, funder mandates, and data sharing policies. Join us in determining how our adventurers will conquer (or succumb to) these challenges. On the side, we'll have a serious discussion of how stakeholders can cross the implementation gap between the good intentions of a policy and the goal of consistent and monitored compliance. || Speakers: Ginny Barbour, Jessica Miles, Natasha Simons, Ms, Heather Staines, Tim Vines
