[Sighfis-l] SIGDL Digital Liaisons

[Ken Herold]

You are invited to participate in a Twitter chat hosted by the Association
for Information Science and Technology (ASIS&T) Special Interest Group for
Digital Libraries (SIG DL)!



The chat will be thematically structured around what Digital Librarianship
looks like in practice and how Digital Libraries contribute to the
communities they serve.



This chat is designed as a *mentoring opportunity* for students and
early-career information professionals to connect with mentors in the
Digital Library community. You are invited to be a mentor or mentee and
join in the conversation! No prior commitment is necessary- just tune in
during the time frame listed below.



*When: *13 October 2016 from 18:00-20:00 GMT

(Note that the timing is intended to accommodate international
participants, with a focus on Europe as the ASIS&T Annual meeting will be
taking place in Copenhagen, Denmark from October 14th-18th.)



*Where: *On Twitter using the hashtags #SIGDLChats



·  You don’t have to do anything to *sign up* beforehand!

·  You *DO *need to have a Twitter handle!

·  You don’t have to be a member of ASIS&T to participate in the Twitter
chat (You do need to be a member to participate in our follow-up panel at

Participants will be invited to ask questions and join in discussion via
Twitter as well as connect with mentors individually afterwards. In order
