This is the final week to register for the DuraSpace/ARL/DLF E-Science
Institute! There are just a few openings available for the fall 2012 offering,
which runs from September 6 through December 13. To register, visit
http://duraspace.org/e-science-institute.
The E-Science Institute is designed to help academic and research libraries
develop a strategic agenda for e-research support, with a particular focus on
the sciences. The Institute consists of a series of interactive modules that
take small teams of individuals from your institution through a dynamic
learning process to strengthen and advance their strategy for supporting
computational scientific research. The coursework begins with a series of
exercises for teams to complete at their institutions, and culminates with an
in-person workshop. Local institution assignments help staff establish a high
level understanding of research support background needs and issues.
Originally funded and developed by the sponsors and supporting institutions of
the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) and Council on Library and
Information Resources (CLIR) / Digital Library Federation (DLF) and it was
previously only available to their members. Going forward the E-Science
Institute will be managed by the DuraSpace organization in partnership with ARL
and CLIR/DLF, and will be open to all institutions. The current offering of the
Institute includes improvements based on participant and faculty feedback as
well as content updates as e-research services continue to mature individually
and collectively.
The registration deadline is September 1 and the launch webinar will be held
next Thursday, September 6 at 1pm Eastern.
