LIBER Leadership Programme – Would you, or someone within your library, like to attend LIBER’s ambitious and international Emerging Leaders Programme? In December, we’ll launch the call for applications. The programme kicks off at LIBER’s 2019 Annual Conference in Dublin, Ireland. For more information, see the LIBER website.
Webinar: Skills and Training in Open Science and the EOSC Ecosystem – Join us on 14 December at 1100 CET for a joint LIBER-EOSCpilot webinar. We aim to connect the LIBER community with the EOSCpilot project’s work on skills for stewardship in the EOSC context. This will be done through discussion with LIBER’s working group on Digital Skills for Library Staff and Researchers, and by describing FAIR4S, a draft skills framework. We will discuss the role of libraries in building research skills in an open science and data science context, and the potential of the framework to help. Register here.
