The Professional Daily

Rules for signing and registering publications

The LPENS signature of your publications must be “Laboratoire de physique de L’École normale supérieure de Paris, CNRS, ENS & Université PSL, Sorbonne Université, Université de Paris, 75005 Paris, France”.
LPENS publications must be registered on HAL. To do so, you must send the DOI of any new publication to publication“at “phys.ens.fr. This is particularly essential for CNRS agents so that their activity reports can be correctly filled in.

Premises and reservations

The allocation of premises is managed by the administrative services of the laboratory.
If you need to reserve an office for a guest, student or trainee, please contact Laura Baron-Ledez (email: laura“`at “phys.ens.fr).
If you wish to reserve a meeting room or conference room, please contact the reservation service at the following address: resa“`at “phys.ens.fr.
Two meeting rooms are available: GH222, LE115 (with videoconferencing system). A conference room is available: E244 (Conf.IV). Meeting rooms can also be reserved for the BSE. 
The classrooms, L357, L361, L363, L367, L369, L378 and L382, on the third floor of the Lhomond Building, can also be used for meetings or conferences when not in use for courses. Room availability at the ENS is available on this page (http://salles.ens.fr/). They can be booked by contacting the following address: resa “at “phys.ens.fr.

Organize a scientific event

A videoconferencing system is available in room LE115. Terms and conditions of use are described here.
The Centre for Direct Scientific Communication (CCSD) of the CNRS has created a platform for managing symposia, workshops, conferences SciencesConf.org.

Supplies & Stores

Office supplies (paper, pencil, etc.) are self-service in each of the two administrative centres (offices E234/E236 & L296/L298).

Access to journals & databases

Journals can be accessed through the CNRS Bib-CNRS platform. All members and visitors of the laboratory have thus access to the journals of the INP of the CNRS (if they have been registered in the Reseda database of the laboratory, see HR service).
You must first log in via the Janus identity manager (by clicking on “connection” (your login is your email address <firstname.name “at” ens.fr> and your password is the one under Janus). Then you have access to journals or databases.
People who wish to do so can ask the HR department to create an account for them (on the INSIT of the CNRS) in order to have access to the biology and neuroscience journals of the INSB of the CNRS or the astrophysics journals of the INSU of the CNRS. Contact the HR department.
