Summary:

Research is evolving from all angles – and academic libraries must ensure their faculty and students have access to the latest content and technology they need to keep up.

In this webinar, you’ll hear from John Cocklin at Dartmouth College and Caroline Muglia at the University of Southern California – two academic librarians who are playing a critical part in advancing their university’s research mission by investing in text and data mining (TDM).

Our speakers will share new ways to:

  • Collaborate with research teams
  • Help researchers get more value from your library’s existing content using TDM
  • Facilitate cross-departmental collaboration
  • Support and influence research outcomes

Join us for an engaging discussion about fostering engagement between the library and the research office, and giving your researchers the tools they need to make career-defining discoveries.
