Fourth
Scholarly Communications Symposium
Transforming
Scholarship in the Digital Age
Georgetown University Libraries and Georgetown University
Press
Thursday, April 19, 9:30 a.m.-Noon
Murray Room, Lauinger Library
Knowledge creation
and communication among research scholars and teaching faculty
is a central feature of the university. Scholarly
communication is changing rapidly within all university disciplines,
especially in areas of research collaboration, writing, and publishing.
These trends affect how faculty and researchers undertake work
and have an impact on authorship, editing, academic advancement,
and use of resources. All areas of scholarly communication
have been altered dramatically by the availability of digital
networks. Please join us for what we hope will be a stimulating
presentation and discussion on Transforming Scholarship
in the Digital Age and what this means for your scholarly
work. Our panel will include:
- James
J. O'Donnell, Provost, Georgetown University
- Dan
Cohen, Associate Director of the Center
for History and New Media and
Assistant Professor of History and Art History, George Mason
University
- Steve Moore,
Program Director, Advanced Research Computing, Georgetown University
- Roberto Bocci,
Assistant Professor, Art, Music, and Theater, Georgetown University
The
goal of this presentation is to allow an open forum for wider
discussion on how research and scholarship are being changed
by the digital world. The symposium series is designed to build
a foundation for continuing university dialogue surrounding initiatives
in scholarly communication. Light refreshments will
be served. Please
RSVP to Joan Cheverie.
