For many, integrating with larger campus priorities is a necessary step to keep the library from falling into obsolescence. I’d like to invite you to a webinar in which I’ll discuss how successful libraries are demonstrating the institutional repository as an essential part of campus infrastructure and an indispensable library service that affects institutional funding and visibility, research, and student learning and recruitment. Please register below: Title: The Modern Repository: Aligning the Library with the University Mission Date/time: Thursday, 5/5, at 11am Pacific/2pm Eastern Register here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/6213420844673305345 Drawing from the Digital Commons community of over 400 institutions, the webinar shares data and examples of crucial IR services and their impact on all corners of campus: faculty, students, centers and departments, and the institution as a whole. I hope you can join me! Regards, -Ann Ann Connolly Director of Outreach and Scholarly Communication bepress [log in to unmask] www.bepress.com
