The tentative schedule is as follows:

10:00 Welcome and introductions

10:15 – 11:30 Christine Fruin, Scholarly Communication and Digital Projects Manager, Atla — presentation on the state of open access and opportunities for engagement

11:30 – 12:00 Interest Group meetings (Research Services IG; Cataloging and Metadata IG)

12:00 – 12:45 Break

PLEASE NOTE:

Normally, we set aside time at the end of the event for a representative from each library to give an update about their institution. For the Fall Meeting, we’d like to try something different: providing updates in advance and including them in the Fall newsletter.

Please use the registration form (link above) to provide an institutional update. Even if you can’t actually make it to the event, we’d like to share your news with the SEPTLA community. Updates typically include such things as institutional news, staff changes, leadership changes, status of building/collection access during the pandemic, etc. If we receive multiple updates from your institution, we will reach out to the director to combine responses.
