Please join us for a panel discussion of issues associated with transition, succession, and inheritance in large projects. Focus here will be especially on human and human-collaboration/-community/-institutional considerations, and largely (but not exclusively) in the domain of the Humanities and Social Sciences, readily generalizable across all areas of the university. Our panelists — from U Montreal, U Richmond, and U Victoria — bring a wealth of local, national, and international experience. The discussion is sponsored by the Electronic Textual Cultures Lab (ETCL) and the KULA Library Futures Academy.

Registration is required. (https://libcal.uvic.ca/calendar/kula/transition) The event will be followed by an informal reception (4:15pm) at the University Club for continued discussion.
