Dear ISF colleagues and colleagues,
I am addressing you and those who are, like us, involved in quality scientific information to inform you of what, I personally hope, will represent a turning point for the professional vicissitudes that we have been forced to undergo in recent years.
At the conclusion of a long, sometimes harsh and bumpy path, always however maintained in the bedrock of democracy, the associative events of the AIISF, once called ANCSIF, see a turning point take place which, in the intentions of those who want to achieve it, can and must serve to obtain real and concrete protection for those who operate correctly in the world of Scientific Information.

The programmatic address wants to be as broad as possible: to create all the synergies po
