Booking is now open for the British Library’s Open and Engaged 2021 online conference ‘Understanding the Impact of Open in the Arts and Humanities Beyond the University’, part of this year’s international Open Access Week.  

Join us on the morning of Monday 25 October 2021 to hear speakers explore the different impacts that open resources can have on people. They will seek to question how openness enhances the ability to engage with communities, how projects can be sustainable and make positive changes in the long-term, as well as some of the downsides to current approaches to open engagement. 

Many of the speakers come from the GLAM (Galleries, Libraries, Archives and Museums) sector, and we will learn about ways cultural organisations generate, measure and report on impact, and seek useful connections across the higher education and cultural sectors. 

Further details can be found in this blog post.  

Registration is free and open now. 

Recordings from the event will be made publicly available in November.
