The training course will be run and organised by Dr. Maria Effinger (Heidelberg University Library / arthistoricum.net / NFDI4Culture), PD Dr. Dr. Grischka Petri (FIZ Karlsruhe / NFDI4Culture) and Franziska Voß (Johann Christian Senckenberg University Library / FID Darstellende Kunst / UAG Subject Indexing of the FID Working Group) in cooperation with Dr. Benjamin Auberer from the VDB Commission for Subject Librarianship.
At the interface between the memory institutions and information infrastructures as well as the researchers of their respective target groups, the Specialised Information Services (FID) have developed a wide range of services in recent years.
In recent years, the specialised information services (FID) have built up a wide range of services that are specifically geared towards the needs of their communities.
In the VDB training course, arthistoricum.net – Fachinformationsdienst Kunst – Fotografie – Design – Specialised Information Service Art – Photography – Design and the Specialised Information Service Performing Arts (FID Darstellende Kunst) will present selected services and advisory formats, such as digital publication services and standard data services for the arts and cultural studies.
Based on the presentation of the services, we will also take a look at your day-to-day work and open up the format to answer your questions in a practical way. Among other things, we want to present and discuss the challenges of publication and intellectual property rights with you: How and where can publications from the arts & cultural studies be researched and found on open access platforms? How can I advise the users of my institution on the possibilities of OA publications? What about the funding and financing of OA publications? What special features and hurdles, but also what opportunities arise here for the perennial problem of image rights and licences? Can protected images and digital copies be published freely, and does free access also have advantages when it comes to obtaining usage rights?
What challenges are faced when indexing and standardising ethically sensitive objects and resources? What potential, but also obstacles, does working with and in the GND cooperative offer? What role do subject indexing and authority data work play in the future development of libraries?
The link for registration and the detailed programme will be published shortly before the training course. The training course is free of charge and is aimed at specialist departments in the arts, humanities and cultural studies and invites participants to engage in dialogue about current challenges in their day-to-day work.
