Following the highly successful research support seminar, organised by DIT Library Services in October last year, it was decided to make this an annual event. The 2008 Seminar will take place in Room 5-050, Aungier Street, on Monday 20th. October from 10.30am to 12.30pm followed by a light lunch.
Keynote speaker will be Dr. Ellen Hazelkorn, newly appointed Director of Research and Enterprise, who will outline her vision for research support in DIT. Dr John Donovan will speak on managing research information in DIT and Robin Beecroft from Digital Commons will outline developments in research dissemination through e-repositories. There will also be updates by Library staff on the Sconul Access Scheme, Endnote and other library supports for research.
The DIT Research Repository - ARROW - will be formally launched and Yvonne Desmond, Arrow Manager, will demonstrate the system.
It promises to be an interesting morning so please register your attendance before October 16th. by contacting Mary.conlan@dit.ie
