Scholarly Communication: From Understanding to Engagement

This spring ACRL DVC will be hosting an ACRL Scholarly Communications RoadShow, Scholarly Communication: From Understanding to Engagement, on April 26, 2019 at the Penn State Great Valley Campus. ACRL DVC was one of five institutions chosen throughout the country to host the program.

The interactive workshop will be led by two expert presenters, Carla Myers, Assistant Professor and Coordinator of Scholarly Communications of Miami University Libraries and Will Cross, Director of the Copyright and Digital Scholarship Center of North Carolina State University. Presenters will focus on subjects of Open Educational Resources (OER) and accessibility.

The goal of the program is to empower participants to help accelerate the transformation of the scholarly communication system. We recognize scholarly communication as a core competency of the profession and OER and accessibility as fundamentals of scholarly communication. ACRL DVC welcomes members to participate in a unique opportunity to explore these topics in a deep dive.

This project is made possible by a grant from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services as administered by the Pennsylvania Department of Education and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, Tom Wolf, Governor, through the College and Research Division (https://crdpala.org/) of PaLA.
