Registration is now open for Science Boot Camp! For further information
and to register, visit the Science Boot Camp 2012 Lib Guide at
http://guides.library.umass.edu/BootCamp2012
This year’s Boot Camp will be held at Tufts University in Medford, MA.
June 13-15th. Now in its fourth year, Science Boot Camp provides a fun
and casual setting where New England science faculty present educational
sessions on their respective science domains to librarians. Science
topics for this year’s boot camp include neuroscience, organic
chemistry, and data visualization. There will also be a special “Women
in Science” panel presentation during dinner on June 13^th . On Friday
June 15^th , the Capstone session will feature a panel of librarians who
have participated in the ARL e-Science institute and a general
discussion on what libraries and librarians need in order to effectively
engage in e-Science services (e.g. educational needs, staffing,
funding—to name just a few).
Science Boot Camp provides librarians with valuable continuing education
at a low cost, and offers three options for attendees–full registration
with overnight lodging, commuter registration, or a one day registration
option. If you’ve never been to Science Boot Camp, check out the
presentations from previous Science Boot Camps at
