ARCS is passionate about engaging students and early career researchers to understand their needs and expectations, and to facilitate their leadership in efforts to build a more collaborative, open, and impactful scholarly communication system. We are working with the Right to Research Coalition and Digital Library Federation to identify students and early career researchers to represent this important constituency at the conference, and are partnering with organizations and universities to provide travel scholarships.
This post-conference workshop will follow several student and ECR led presentations and round table discussions. Workshop participants will identify and initiate collaborative projects to influence the transition to open scholarship and science, facilitated and supported by ARCS, Laura Bowering Mullen, Jane Otto, and our scholarship sponsors.
