SUMMARY:Introducing Open Publishing Platforms: Information Sessions with Open Scholarship Librarian Casey Koons
DESCRIPTION:How will UMaine Libraries’ new publishing platforms change the way you share\, discover\, and engage with research?\n\nJoin Casey Koons\, Open Scholarship Librarian at UMaine Libraries\, for a series of virtual information sessions on our new open publishing and digital asset management platforms. \nThese sessions will introduce the tools launching in Spring 2026 to support open\, data-informed scholarship and publishing. Casey will provide an overview of Specto\, the new digital asset management system that will replace our institutional repository Digital Commons\, including its AI-driven contextual linking that connects research outputs to related data\, people\, and collections. \nParticipants will also learn about Maine Open Journals\, UMaine’s new journal publishing platform\, and Maine Open Books\, which supports Open Educational Resources (OER)\, “living documents\,” and collaborative reading and annotation. \nTogether\, these platforms expand opportunities for sharing\, discovering\, and engaging with research across the full scholarly lifecycle. These sessions are especially valuable for faculty and staff who currently use Digital Commons and want to learn more about the transition to Specto and UMaine’s new Open Access publishing tools. \nPlease note: All sessions will cover the same material\, so you only need to attend one. \nSession Dates (via Zoom): \n\nApril 2\, Noon-1 p.m.\nApril 2\, 3–4 p.m.\nApril 8\, Noon-1 p.m.\nApril 8\, 3–4 p.m.\n\nZoom link for April 2 sessions \nZoom link for April 8 sessions
