<p class="MsoNormal">*** Apologies in advance for multiple postings ***<br></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br></p><p class="MsoNormal">Is your Library investigating how to successfully address
the research data management needs of your faculty and students? Do you
want to learn more about leveraging the discipline expertise of liaison
librarians, successful outreach and educational models, and the resources
needed to build and sustain successful research data management services?
If yes, you should attend the Introduction to Library Research Data Management
Services seminar at the 2015 Charleston Conference, hosted in partnership with
ALCTS. The seminar takes place on Tuesday, November 3, 2015, from 9 – noon. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The preconference workshop will offer attendees a
thoughtful, interactive, and actionable introduction to building and delivering
research data management services. Attendees will learn about the primary
activities and importance of data management across the scholarly lifecycle;
the policies, trends, and technologies affecting researchers and the
organizations that support them, and the expertise, staffing and resources
libraries must consider when building services.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">The Charleston Conference is an informal annual gathering of
librarians, publishers, electronic resource managers, consultants and vendors
of library materials in Charleston, South Carolina, in November, to discuss
issues of importance to them all. It is designed to be a collegial gathering of
individuals from different areas who discuss the same issues in a
non-threatening, friendly, and highly informal environment. Presidents of
companies discuss and debate with library directors, acquisitions librarians,
reference librarians, serials librarians, collection development librarians,
and many, many others. Begun in 1980, the Charleston Conference has grown from
20 participants in 1980 to over 1,600 in 2014.</p>
