[Socrates] Academic Works presentation at CUNY IT Conference

[Jean Kelly]

On behalf of Nancy M. Foasberg (Rosenthal Library):

Dear List,

If you're curious about Academic Works and want to know more about it, there's a presentation at the CUNY IT Conference next week. Since I imagine that many of the subscribers of this list are already planning to attend the Conference, this is a convenient opportunity.

Here's a blurb about the presentation:

Opening CUNY: Academic Works at Work
(Tools & Archives Track)
Friday, December 2 at 2:15 PM

Academic Works, CUNY's new open access institutional repository, collects and provides public access to the scholarly and creative works produced by CUNY faculty, students and staff. This program will show how opening content to the world impacts CUNY, as each speaker addresses collections at their institution: dissertations at The Graduate Center, Open Educational Resources at Brooklyn College, the "Save Hostos" archival collection at Hostos Community College and faculty research from across CUNY.

Speakers:
William Casari, College Archivist and Instruction Librarian, Hostos Community College Jill Cirasella, Associate Librarian for Public Services and Scholarly Communication, Graduate Center Miriam B. Deutch, Associate Librarian for Research and Access Services, Brooklyn College Megan Wacha, Scholarly Communications Librarian, CUNY Central
