After a month off in July, our educational events start up again in August,
with two Roundtable Discussion webinars — Eliminating Outdated Workflows:
Developing The New
<http://www.niso.org/events/2022/08/eliminating-outdated-workflows-developing-new>
and Building Support for Non-Traditional Scholarly Outputs
<https://www.niso.org/events/2022/08/building-support-non-traditional-scholarly-outputs>
(both free for your organization as a NISO member) as well as a virtual
conference on Open Source and Community-Supported Infrastructure
<https://www.niso.org/events/2022/08/open-source-and-community-supported-infrastructure>
(discounts for members).

Monthly webinar — free for NISO members

Eliminating Outdated Workflows: Developing The New
<http://www.niso.org/events/2022/08/eliminating-outdated-workflows-developing-new>

Wednesday, August 10, 11.00am - 12.30pm Eastern Daylight Time (US/Canada)

Could changing a workflow free up time for the information community — and
the researchers we serve — to focus on other more valuable work? Hear from
some of the professionals responsible for tweaking old workflows and
processes and managing the resulting changes.

Speakers will include Christopher Cox, Clemson University, Trevor A. Dawes,
University of Delaware, and Sara Lowman, Rice University.

Building Support for Non-Traditional Scholarly Outputs
<https://www.niso.org/events/2022/08/building-support-non-traditional-scholarly-outputs>

Wednesday, August 17, 11.00am - 12.30pm Eastern Daylight Time (US/Canada)

Following on from the previous webinar, this event will expand the
discussion into the realm of non-traditional outputs. Video, audio, and
data visualization are already increasingly common output formats, and
those working in the arts and practice-based research require support for a
host of other outputs, including images, performances, and more. What does
this all mean for our research infrastructure? For editorial or content
management systems? For discovery tools? For content platforms? We’re
assembling a group of expert speakers (details to follow) for a round table
discussion on this important and challenging topic.

Virtual conference — discount for NISO members

Open Source and Community-Supported Infrastructure
<https://www.niso.org/events/2022/08/open-source-and-community-supported-infrastructure>


Wednesday, August 24, 12.00 - 4.00pm Eastern Daylight Time (US/Canada)

Research infrastructure is costly to build and maintain — they require
investment and ongoing maintenance for the community to really benefit from
and trust them. Which of the spectrum of models currently in use will best
sustain key information infrastructure? What’s working, and what’s not —
and why? What are the best practices for working across organizational
boundaries? How can community leaders encourage the commitment needed to
ensure sustainability as well as development? This virtual conference will
bring together a group of experts (details to follow) to address these and
other questions about the expansion of open source and community-supported
infrastructure.
