This is a friendly introduction to Github – a free and open source platform that can help you build projects that are collaborative, well documented, and version-controlled.
In this workshop we will introduce you to the Github ecosystem and help you get you comfortable navigating basic Github workflows. We will make sure that you leave the workshop aware of the best practices for developing projects on Github (e.g. writing a good “readme” or posting and labeling issues) and an understanding of how Github can help make your projects more readable and accessible.
This workshop is developed for anyone looking for a solution to making projects – whether it be your research on arctic glaciers, the materials for an undergraduate course, your PHD thesis, or even a cookbook – more manageable. This workshop is geared towards all skill levels, but first-time and novice users are encouraged and prioritized.
Full details of this workshop can be found at: https://kirstiejane.github.io/friendly-github-intro/
- Would you like to share your research findings with the international academic community, without paywall restrictions?
- Would you like to boost citations of your work?
- Did you know that funders recognise the benefits of Open Access and most now require it as a condition of their grants?
These are questions for postgraduate students at all stages of their research.
Seeing your name on the spine of a book is a great achievement, which can help to kick start your career in some disciplines. How do you get there?
This session answers some of the key questions along the way, including including:
- Should you turn your thesis into a monograph?
- How do you choose a publisher?
- How do you get your proposal accepted?
- What are the key stages in the publication process?
- Where should you publish your monograph or book chapter?
- How do you assess the appropriateness of a publisher for your work?
Picking where to publish your research and in what format is an important decision to make.
This session looks at the things you need to consider in order to reach your audience effectively, including:
- Turning your thesis into a monograph
- Choosing a publisher
- Understanding the publication process
In-person and online bookings for this annual conference from Cambridge University Libraries focusing on Open Research at Cambridge have now closed.
This day-long, hybrid conference, to be held on Friday 17 November 2023, has the theme of Open Research for Inclusion: Spotlighting Different Voices in Open Research at Cambridge.
This conference will focus on areas of Open Research in under-represented disciplines and contexts which have been at the forefront of recent discussions in Cambridge. These include Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences, the GLAM sector (Galleries, Libraries, Archives, and Museums), and research from and about the Global South.
We'll be exploring these topics with individual speakers, panels and a workshop. The full programme and further information can be found on our events page.
Problem solving is a daily part of working in a library, whether it is for our users or ourselves. Turning these problems into research projects is the next step but one that many of us find difficult to take.
Delivered as part of our Conference with Confidence series, this workshop will help you think about the everyday innovations in your library and how these can be turned into research projects for discussion at future events. We will look at the pros and cons of undertaking research in your workplace, how it can help to generate solutions to problems, support a case for resources or just find out more about your library.
This workshop is suitable for those interested in undertaking research projects, complete novices or those wanting to know more about the possibilities of workplace research. Who knows where is might lead?
Delivered as part of our Conference with Confidence series
Being a reflective practitioner is something which doesn’t come naturally to all of us but it is a surprisingly easy skill to develop. As well as helping you to think critically about your own personal development, undertaking reflection can help library staff to improve their service and deal with user feedback in a constructive way.
Delivered as part of our Conference with Confidence series, this interactive workshop will help you to understand the theory of reflective practice, how to overcome barriers to integrate it into your everyday role and offer a chance to practice reflective writing. All skills that come in handy when preparing those conference abstracts… It is also useful if you are thinking of undertaking any level of professional qualification such as CILIP Chartership or Fellowship of the Higher Education Academy.
Delivered as part of our Conference with Confidence series
One thing that puts many people off speaking at conferences is a perceived lack of presentation skills. Although this is one way to undertake public speaking, presentation skills are a much wider part of the information profession and can encompass anything from leading a tour to working at an enquiry point.
Delivered as part of our Conference with Confidence series, this workshop will take you through the process of creating and delivering a presentation, offer tips on design, outline techniques to deal with nerves and help you to feel more confident in communicating with others. Offered as a more accessible version one-hour version of our previous interactive workshop, this session offers you a chance to refresh your knowledge in a supportive environment.

Confused by copyright? You are not alone!
Copyright involves much more than checking how much you are photocopying, but it can be difficult to know where to start.
Join the Office of Scholarly Communication as we answer your copyright queries, looking at:
- Who owns the copyright to my published articles?
- How can I use Creative Commons Licenses to make my work available to all?
- How can I safely reuse other's work?
- What do my publishers and funders require of me?
How do you create the perfect copyright recipe?
Creative Commons licenses sit alongside existing copyright regulations as a way to help researchers use existing creations and share their own work with others. This webinar will explore the history of the Creative Commons movement, explore how the licenses can be put together and how librarians can encourage their researchers to use them to their best advantage.
