Seminar

This is a new event looking at Open Educational Resources. Taking place over a two half days on Tuesday 10th and Wednesday 11th October (10am until 1pm)

Resource Discovery is a new seminar which gives an overview of what is discovery from the point of view of librarians, content providers and the technology services. It gives attendees insight into the discovery services landscape, metadata and processes behind the scenes. This seminar will take place over two days on Wednesday 8th November and Thursday 9th November.

This two-part online event has been adapted from UKSG’s successful and long-running one-day seminar and aims to present a practical introductory overview of all aspects of e-resources management, encompassing e-journals, e-books and bibliographic and full-text databases. Taking place as two morning sessions on Tuesday 18th and Thursday 20th June.

Media interest in research has never been greater due to the global impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and Climate Change, among other topics. How research is communicated varies from an international scale down to local level, as also reflected in the quality of coverage from in-depth news features to poorly referenced, click-bait churnalism. Join us for this online seminar.

The rise of open access and associated compliance requirements has created an increasing role for librarians in supporting pre-publication workflows for journal articles and other research outputs. It has also led research institutions to develop a widening range of services and systems to support publication and manage compliance. This online event is hosted over 2 half days. Registration open.
