OCLC and LIBER Plan Virtual Workshops on Strategic Relationships
OCLC and LIBER (Association of European Research Libraries) are hosting a virtual workshop series called Building Strategic Relationships to Advance Open Scholarship at Your Institution that will run May 4–18, 2021. There will be three workshops, each providing presentations and small group discussion activities. The programming for the series is based on “Social Interoperability in Research Support: Cross-Campus Partnerships and the University Research Enterprise,” an OCLC Research report.“Developing the skills of library staff and researchers is high on LIBER’s agenda. As part of this workshop, we hope to reach yet another target group—mid-level library managers and practitioners—and yet another skill set which is that of social interoperability,” says Astrid Verheusen, LIBER’s executive director. According to the press release, “Participants are expected to gain an increased understanding of why cross-campus collaboration can be so difficult, who the key stakeholders are and what they care about. It is expected that participants will return to their institutions with strategies and tactics to apply in relationship development.” For more information, read the press release.
