Apologies for cross-posting -- but please also post widely yourselves!

Please note: The first of these scheduled focus groups is next week. If you're interested, please register ASAP.

=====

As part of the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) initiative to develop an actionable research agenda on the research environment and scholarly communication, we are conducting several online focus groups to ensure in particular that members of underrepresented groups (across a variety of institutional types) will have the opportunity to share their perspective with the researchers. Although we wish to hear in particular from these groups, we welcome participation from anyone.

Following is a list of the scheduled focus groups. Each meeting will last no longer than 90 minutes and will take place via Zoom. All participants are asked to register in advance of the session. Space for each event is limited; should you not be able to participate in your first-choice session, we hope you will consider joining another.
