There will be two more meetings of the LACUNY Scholarly Communications Roundtable this academic year: a discussion-based meeting in April (60 minutes) and a May event with lightning talks related to peer review (90 minutes).

April meeting (60 minutes, Zoom):

• If you’re interested in attending the April meeting, please complete this Calendly poll. At this meeting, we’ll discuss a few more chapters from the open access book Scholarly Communication Librarianship and Open Knowledge — chapters TBD…please send me any preferences you might have!

May lightning talks about peer review (90 minutes, Zoom):

• If you’re interested in attending the lightning talk event, please complete this other Calendly poll. (No pressure to present — non-presenting attendees will be welcome!)
• Also, if you’re interested in giving a lightning talk (5-7 minutes) related to peer review, please add your name to this document. If you know what you’d like to present about, please indicate that as well; if you don’t, please still add your name, and there will be time to figure the rest out. Topics can include: a less common or non-traditional form of peer review, a summary of an article examining a specific aspect of peer review, arguments for/against peer review, etc. Not sure if your idea would work? Get in touch!

Questions? Please reach out!

Thanks,
Jill (2023-24 chair, LACUNY Scholarly Communications Roundtable)

Hi SCRT colleagues!

Just a friendly reminder to…

1. Please vote for a meeting time (60 minutes) for April, if you haven’t done so already.
2. Please vote for a meeting time (90 minutes) for May, if you haven’t done so already. At this meeting, we’ll have lightning talks about peer review, but there’s no need to be a presenter in order to attend.
3. Add your name to this list if you’re interested (or even potentially interested) in giving a lightning talk having to do with some aspect of peer review.

I hope to pin down a meeting for the April meeting by the end of this week.

Thanks!
Jijll
