This session will be available on-demand at the start of the conference.
During this timeslot, the authors will be on the Online Conference Platform to answer text-based Q&A.

Identifying a research topic can be a daunting task for students, particularly in seminar courses. To better serve them, liaison librarians can collaborate with faculty to promote electronic resources through assignment-aligned information literacy instruction. By creatively promoting these resources, we encourage topic exploration, meeting students where they already are: online.

This session will be available on-demand at the start of the conference.
During this timeslot, the authors will be on the Online Conference Platform to answer text-based Q&A.

OA book mandates are coming. COPIM will demonstrate how meeting these with Book Processing Charges will worsen inequality by favouring the most wealthy institutions and authors.
