#research #funders #librarians #community

Hello #librarians working with universities / higher-education. Has your library undertaken a major transition in the way it operates? I'd like to hear about peoples' experiences in which their library changed its model of dedicated subject/liaison librarians to a model such as a team-based one, functional one, etc. For example, was it a positive change for the community? Are you more or less able to be effective in your work? How did workloads change?

DOI suffixes may include several approved special characters, but they should never end with one.

End-of-string punctuation often prevents correct resolution. This month's ticket explains what characters are allowed and how to construct stable DOI suffixes. https://tinyurl.com/3ydap2kh
