New Directions in Faculty Scholarship: What Libraries Need to Know to Stay Ahead of the Game webinar ( bepress)
When: Tue, February 17, 11am – 12pm |11 am Pacific / 2pm Eastern (map)
Description: The explosion of digital forms of scholarship has greatly increased the spectrum of what faculty want to share, preserve, and organize. From multimedia to datasets, from archival documents to course materials, faculty needs for digital expertise are rapidly expanding. This changing landscape means that it is a critical time for libraries: to understand the changing nature of faculty needs, to demonstrate the full potential of its digital expertise, and to partner with faculty in supporting their work. Based on research that examines a number of exemplary faculty projects, this presentation explores some of the main drivers behind changing faculty needs. What compels faculty to come to the library for help? What comprises the main areas of faculty need? What kinds of faculty projects are the best fit for the library?
Promita Chatterji, Outreach Associate at bepress, will share what we’ve learned and provide some new tools to identify the greatest areas of faculty need on your campus.Register here: https://attende
