ERASMUS International Staff Week for Library Professionals. 2020

Open Science - Library Support

March 24-27, 2020

Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU), Trondheim, Norway

The University Library at NTNU would like to invite library staff to a three-day training and networking event with a focus on Open Science and how the university library can support researchers and students.

The target group for the Staff Week is all library staff working with or being interested in the topic of Open Science, with a focus on Open Access and Research Data Management. The event aims to strengthen collaboration and provide an opportunity to share knowledge and experience, and active participation is expected.

We would like some of the participations to contribute by sharing best practice and ideas. The contributions may be carried out in form of small presentations, group work exercises or other interactive tasks.

Note that the program is preliminary and will be subject to change. All activities and lectures will be in English.

No of participants: max 30

We look forward to welcoming you in Trondheim!
