Hello, DLF-- On behalf of the Data Curation Network, I'd like to invite you all to attend an upcoming webinar, the third in our Institutional Repository Readiness Virtual Learning Series <https://datacurationnetwork.org/sustaining-open-research-virtual-learning-series/>! Please join us *Wednesday, September 6, 1:00pm-2:30pm Eastern* for, “Making the Case for Institutional [Data] Repository Services. <https://umn.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0scuqgqjMiHNfmxiA12O62i1E9QEOSJljh>” During this session, our speakers will try to address questions like: - What makes Institutional Data Repositories (IDRs) critical to data sharing infrastructure and what is their place in the repository ecosystem? - How will developing a roadmap toward meeting Desirable Characteristics of Data Repositories help IDRs underscore their role as essential, critical infrastructure? - If IDRs were able to collectively adopt the desirable characteristics, what would that do for the ecosystem as a whole? - Which characteristic(s) might have the most impact for resources invested? Heidi Imker, from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, will start the event with a description of their motivation for developing and establishing their home-grown data repository based in their University Library. Susan Ivey and Moira Downey, North Carolina State University, will provide a complementary presentation, covering the perspective of a campus-wide approach to a repository, leveraging a vended solution. Tina Baich, IUPUI and US Repository Network, will round out the discussion with a national perspective. Following the presentations, there will be a panel discussion and time for questions. There is no cap on attendees, but we ask that you register in advance. Registration is now open <https://umn.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0scuqgqjMiHNfmxiA12O62i1E9QEOSJljh#/registration>-- and please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions! I also am happy to share the recording and slides from our second event. Thank you again to our speakers for a lively discussion last week!
