Webinar Video: Library Carpentry – Teaching Data Science Skills & Upcoming Instructor Training

With appropriate training, libraries can effectively support the data science needs of their researchers, which is critical for the development of Open Science.

In this webinar Christopher Erdmann introduced The Carpentries, a non-profit organisation that trains people in software development and data science skills, and Library Carpentry, a branch of this organisation focused on the needs of libraries.

We also heard from Juliane Schneider, a Carpentries trainer about the benefits of becoming a Library Carpentry instructor.

The webinar was recorded and can be viewed on YouTube. The slides are available on Zenodo.
