DLF Data and Digital Scholarship working group (DLFdds) is seeking nominations and self-nominations for two new co-conveners.



To nominate yourself or others, please complete this form<https://montana.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_brsIlIhsaAmEkaW> by December 1.



DLFdds is a community of practice focused on implementing research data and digital scholarship services. The group focuses on shared skill development, peer mentorship, networking, and collaboration. DLFdds aims to create a self-reliant, mutually supportive community: a network of institutions and individuals engaged in continuous learning about research data management, digital scholarship, and research support. For more information on the history of the group and past projects, please see our Working Group Wiki<https://wiki.diglib.org/Digital_Scholarship_Working_Group>.



Over the past year, the group has offered 5 interactive webinars. Most recently, we have formed a collaboration with Research Libraries UK’s Digital Scholarship Network<https://www.diglib.org/building-a-transatlantic-digital-scholarship-skills-exchange-for-research-libraries-moving-forward/>, offering transatlantic skill-building tools and networking opportunities.



DLFdds is an open and flexible working group, and new co-conveners have the opportunity to shape and grow the community in new ways. Current co-conveners Sara Mannheimer and Jason Clark will provide mentorship and support to new co-conveners for 6 months.
