December OpenCon Librarian Community Call - Scholarly Communication Work: On the Ground Perspectives https://sparcopen-org.zoom.us/meeting/register/3l5msbV6RfescQJKA7InOg
Welcome! You are invited to join a meeting: December OpenCon Librarian Community Call - Scholarly Communication Work: On the Ground Perspectives. After registering, you will receive a confirmation email about joining the meeting.
At the next OpenCon Librarian Community Call on December 9 at 12 p.m. ET / 9 a.m. PT, Allegra Swift and Annie Johnson will discuss the results of their survey, Scholarly Communication Work: On the Ground Perspectives. The survey investigates the experiences of scholarly communication workers in academic libraries in the United States and Canada. This study puts the focus back on workers’ own experiences on the job, to better understand the contributing factors to burnout and attrition that can arise for those in these positions. Allegra K. Swift is the Scholarly Communication Lead Librarian at the UC San Diego Library. Annie K. Johnson is the Associate University Librarian for Research, Teaching, and Technology at the University of Delaware Library, Museums and Press. OpenCon Librarian Community Calls are limited to those working in libraries, and registration is now required. You can register for the December call here.
