Sorry, we’re OPEN!

The first Edition of the University of Cagliari’s BIP for librarians is launched: Sorry, we’re OPEN! – Advancing Open Science and Open Access in academic libraries (UniCA Blended Intensive Program for Librarians 2025).

The focus of the BIP will be on electronic resources, open science, collection management, and artificial intelligence, with an emphasis on the exchange of best practices.

Who is it targeted to? 

Library staff from academic institutions with experience in the topics covered. Priority will be given to applications from universities that are part of the European University Alliance EDUC, of which the University of Cagliari is a member: University of Potsdam, University of Rennes, University Paris Nanterre, Masaryk University, University of Pécs, Jaume I University, and South-Eastern Norway University. The number of participants from each institution should not exceed 2 individuals, in order to ensure greater variety in the BIP experience.

When does it take place and in what format? 

The virtual activity will take place on September 11, 2025, on Microsoft Teams, while the in-person event will be held in Cagliari from September 29 to October 3, 2025.

There are no registration fees for participation in the BIP. Participants are responsible for covering their own expenses for meals, accommodation, and travel to/from Cagliari.
