Fall Road Scholars Nov. 13: Micah Vandegrift on Open Scholarship Policy
This message has been approved by Janet Kistner, Vice President for Faculty Development and Advancement, for distribution to faculty and staff.
The annual FSU Road Scholars speaker series welcomes distinguished scholars from institutions within the Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) to FSU during weeks that coincide with ACC athletic events. Road Scholars events are intended for non-specialist audiences.
The Fall 2020 virtual event will feature Micah Vandegrift, Open Knowledge Librarian at North Carolina State University. Micah is an FSU alumnus and the founding Scholarly Communication Librarian and Director of Digital Research Scholarship at Florida State University. He will be speaking about his recent project as a Fulbright-Schuman Research Fellow, titled “Open Scholarship Policies and Technologies: The European Research Library as a Model for Advancing Global Scholarly Communication”. Micah researched the overlap between open science policy and technical infrastructure at three levels; the European Union, nationally in The Netherlands and Denmark, and in the daily work of librarians in those countries.
The event will include an hour lecture and additional time for questions. This event is sponsored by the University Libraries in collaboration with the Road Scholars Committee and the Office of Faculty Development and Advancement.
When: Nov 13, 2020 03:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)
