But with the right perspective, the uncommon can become the exceptional. That’s why Elsevier is dedicated to making uncommon knowledge, common—through validation, integration, and connection. Between our carefully-curated information databases, smart social networks, intelligent search tools, and thousands of scholarly books and journals, we have a great responsibility and relentless passion for making information actionable".

"We believe that the program will add great value for the participants in enhancing their skills of writing quality content and to interact with experts in the field of publishing and get their queries answered. Additionally, this will also be a great platform to interact and understand about the value of eBook content usage in research through digital platform", claimed Arnab.
