Evolving Scholarly Record and Evolving Stewardship Ecosystem—Chicago Workshop

Attendees at this workshop explored the boundaries of the scholarly record and the curation roles of various stakeholders. #esrworkshop

This event has passed.

The Scholarly Record is expanding to include many kinds and forms of information beyond the formal outputs. Research methods, models, software, data, blogs, presentations, discussions, images, survey findings and much more are now part of the evolving scholarly record. Attendees at this workshop will explore the boundaries of the scholarly record and the curation roles of various stakeholders.

Hosted by Northwestern University Library, this workshop built on the framework presented in the OCLC Research report, The Evolving Scholarly Record.

We explored the responsibilities of research libraries, data archives, and other stewards of research output—and identified new alliances that should be forged to create a reliable ecosystem for preserving the scholarly record and making it accessible.

This was the third in a series of Evolving Scholarly Record workshops.  The Amsterdam Workshop was held on 10 June 2014. The Washington, DC Workshop was held on 10 December 2014.  A San Francisco Workshop will be held on 2 June 2015.
