DARIAH Annual Event
The Annual Event is open beyond the DARIAH community. It features a series of engaging keynote lectures and interactive sessions, which bring together researchers, technologists, data scientists and cultural heritage professionals. Additionally it enables colleagues to work together face-to-face on their DARIAH activities, e.g. in Working Group meetings.
This year’s event will take place in Paris on 22 – 24 May, 2018. The theme for this year is Open Science.
The first keynote will be held by Dr. Jon Tennant, who is creator of the Open Science Mooc. It is entitled “Open Science is just good science”. The speech will center around the question of how researchers can work together to kick-start a new culture of ‘open’ scientific practices.
The second keynote speaker is Prof. Teresa Scassa, the Canada Research Chair in Information Law and Policy at the University of Ottawa, Faculty of Law. She will speak on “Intellectual Property Rights in Ethically Open Science” and will examine the complex role of intellectual property rights in the creation and advancement of academic knowledge.
Additionally a series of workshops will highlight various aspects of the DARIAH infrastructure:
- Workshop 1: Promoting Open Scholarship in DH: Reasons and Tools for Open Licensing
- Workshop 2: DH Course Registry Metadatathon
- Workshop 3: Open Peer Review hands on: alternative methods of evaluation in scholarly publishing
- Workshop 4: DH in Ten Years From Now. PARTHENOS ‘Foresight Study Workshop’
Please register until May 23, 2018 at https://dariah2018.sciencesconf.org/registration.
DARIAH’s Regional Hubs
Within DARIAH’s Humanities at Scale project new networks were developed where existing members can function as regional coordinators. These coordinators serve as a bridge between DARIAH and relevant institutions in their respective region to raise awareness of DARIAH within the whole European Research Area and to attract potential new members and research communities.
