[HUM-INFOSTUD PRAC]

Dear students around Australia and offshore

For those particularly interested in academic librarianship, please see below for details about a webinar re Knowledge Unlatched (KU) Select 2016.

I have been in contact with Claire and she says interested students are most welcome to sign up. The webinar will certainly focus on KU and selling the 2016 collection, however, the following will also be touched on:

*         open access publishing models

*         collection development principles

*         usage statistics

See below for the link to register.

Kind regards
Bec
