Scholarly Communication: From Understanding to Engagement

Academic and research librarians increasingly recognize scholarly communication as a core competency of the profession. Whether helping researchers meet their funder’s mandates for public access and data sharing, guiding responsible copyright practice, or supporting new types of scholarship and instruction, librarians are leading change across campus and around the world.

The goal of the structured, interactive program is to equip participants with knowledge and skills to help accelerate the transformation of the scholarly communication system.

At this workshop we have asked the presenters to incorporate their latest targeted modules on the subjects of Accessibility and Open Education.

This workshop is presented by ACRL National. Presenters will include:

• Carla Myers, Assistant Professor and Coordinator of Scholarly Communications, Miami University Libraries,
• Will Cross, Director of the Copyright and Digital Scholarship Center, North Carolina State University
