Session Description:
In order to support faculty and students using digital tools and methods in their research, our institution prioritized the development of digital scholarship skills. However, as libraries tighten their belts at a time when professional development is imperative for public service librarians to accommodate new modes of teaching and research, how do we gain maximum impact of the learning happening outside our libraries? Panelists will present their perspectives toward increasing support for digital scholarship through a home-grown institute. They will share benefits resulting from collaborative professional development and engage audience members in brainstorming their own in-house learning opportunities.
