Scholars Portal Day 2017

Scholars Portal Day 2017: Transforming Libraries
Friday, December 8^th, 9:30am-3:30pm

This year, the Ontario Council of University Libraries celebrated its 50th anniversary, and at Scholars Portal Day we want to reflect on the past and turn toward the future. Our theme is transformation: transforming library collections, services, spaces, and more in order to serve the changing needs of diverse user groups in a time of technological innovation.

The day will include updates about OCUL and Scholars Portal projects, featured talk “Looking Backward and Forward by Looking Around” from librarian and scholar Michael Ridley, and lightning talks about projects and initiatives at different OCUL institutions. 

Staff at OCUL member libraries are invited to view the livestream at this link: http://apps.rotman.utoronto.ca/liveatrotman/

Participants are encouraged to tweet using the hashtag #spday17 and invited to submit questions during the Q&A sections using sli.do: https://www.sli.do/ Our event code is #spday17

Please note that the livestream and sli.do event will go active only shortly before the event start time at 9:30am on Friday, December 8^th.
