From Understanding to Engagement

We¹re pleased to have the ACRL (Association of College & Research
Libraries) Workshop on Scholarly Communication coming to UNB in May.
This is a very well established workshop which has been offered at
universities across the US and Canada.  It¹s a great opportunity for
those of us here to learn more about scholarly communication

The goal of the program is to empower participants to help accelerate
the transformation of the scholarly communication system. Participants
will engage in a structured interactive program. In 2013-14, the
workshop will focus on themes of:

        EURO Access
        EURO Emerging opportunities
        EURO Intellectual property
        EURO Engagement

The workshop will help participants in very practical ways, such as:
prepare for library staff or faculty outreach (i.e., working with
faculty on publication agreements, interacting in their roles as
liaisons, and developing programming for faculty and/or graduate
students), contextualize collection development decisions to internal
and external stakeholders, and initiate or support new models for
scholarly communication in their libraries.
