Missouri’s Chapter of ACRL (MACRL) is looking forward to a terrific slate of activities, none of which are limited to MACRL members. Please join us for some or all of our upcoming events, shown below:
July 12th, 10:00 – 3:00, Washington University
Copyright and Open Educational Resources: Creation, Licensing, and Use
There’s still time to let us know you’ll be joining us to view and discuss this proprietary ACRL webcast! “Copyright permeates almost every aspect of the creation and use of Open Educational Resources (OER)… Students and faculty are often turning to librarians for answers about copyright compliance when creating and using OER. This interactive webcast will help prepare academic librarians to assist patrons in addressing a variety of issues.” Also on the agenda: a tour of the John M. Olin Library and lunch at a nearby restaurant. Email Mardi at mahaffym@umkc.edu to learn more or to register.

Project Outcome is a free toolkit offering libraries access to training, data analytics, and standardized surveys that measure outcomes in key library service areas. https://acrl.projectoutcome.org/
