Hi DLF-- On behalf of the Data Curation Network, I'm excited to share that applications are now open for the Summit for Academic Institutional Readiness in Data Sharing <https://datacurationnetwork.org/summit-for-academic-institutional-readiness-in-data-sharing-stairs/> (STAIRS).* To be held *August 5-6, 2024* *at the University of Minnesota*, the STAIRS summit is designed to bring together data service providers, institutional repository (IR) managers, data curation professionals and other key stakeholders from across universities who support managing and sharing research data. We will use the summit to build up our communities of practice for institutionally based research data services and repositories in academic libraries, identifying common areas of need and exploring ways to strengthen connections between institutions. Each institution should submit *one* application, but will be allowed to send up to three representatives. The applications for the summit are open now <https://umn.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_2bhJQa2wO1KOsOq>through *May 17, 2024*. Interested participants can view a PDF version of the application <https://drive.google.com/file/d/1nqMLE2l8dBgdz-OX9AtK0qsPqZRMuafy/view?usp=drive_link>, as well as the rubric we will be using <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1gSx7AAbzuT-RQJpG0enHIC-AZdSjRNposZ6cQEnNBKU/edit?usp=sharing> to evaluate applications.
