Reg now (space limited)!
*Register now* for the AC L/NY 2014 Symposium, “The Academic Librarian
in the Open Access Future,” taking place on Friday, December 5, 2014.

As the movement toward open access (OA) begins to impact our users and
our institutions in increasingly complex ways, academic librarians will
be called upon to forge and maintain a variety of productive and
enriching relationships across the library, across campus, and
beyond. What roles will we take on to help researchers negotiate an
evolving scholarly communications landscape? To empower students to
become skilled and responsible participants in an expanded universe of
content? To enable access and enhance discoverability, which is at
the heart of OA? And what “best practices” might we develop to build and
strengthen the necessary collaborative connections? Through case studies
grounded in a range of institutional contexts, we will consider new
opportunities and real challenges. During small-group debriefing
sessions, participants will have an opportunity to strategize with peers
about how to support their users and find potential collaborators.
Come join the conversation! Space is limited so register now!
Registration Closes Monday, November 24.
