University of Massachusetts and New England Area Librarian E-Science Symposium- April 6, 2009
In an attempt to continue to enhance collaborative New England region libraries' support of e-science initiatives for their research institutions, the Lamar Soutter Library at the University of Massachusetts Medical School is hosting a regional symposium on Monday, April 6, 2009. With co-sponsorship from the National Network of Libraries of Medicine–New England Region and the Boston Library Consortium, this day-long symposium serves as an educational and collaborative opportunity for science librarians to discuss e-science resources, in addition to future roles that libraries and librarians might take on to support their institutions.
