Please mark your calendars for an upcoming brown bag lunch update and discussion of the DRSR project. The brown bag lunch will be Thursday, November 17th from 12:00-1:30pm in the Avery Room (Bobst Library, 2nd floor in the Avery Fisher Center.)
DRSR is a joint Libraries-IT project that is working to create central repository services that address the needs of NYU researchers and librarians with with respect to the research data lifecycle. The project has been underway for just over a year, and you may have heard updates about the project at several meetings in the spring or at a Digital Infrastructure Roadshow over the summer. We thought a fall update with an informal setting that allows lots of questions and answers might be a good idea!
We’ll provide soft drinks and cookies to complement your brown bag lunch.
