Call for Host Institution for RSC Meeting in November 2024

At its meeting in October, the RDA Steering Committee (RSC) confirmed the dates of its meetings for 2024 as follows:

29 January to 1 February 2024, asynchronously, with an online Public Session on 30 January, 9-11pm CET.

15-18 April 2024, asynchronously, with an online Public Session on 16 April, 9-11pm CEST.

15-18 July 2024, asynchronously, with an online Public Session on 16 July, 9-11pm CEST.

11-15 November 2024, with date of Public Session to be agreed with host institution.

The RSC welcomes invitations from institutions that may be interested in hosting its November meeting. The RSC comprises 12 people, but part of the RSC meeting will likely be open to observers; this provides interested parties the opportunity to see how RDA is built and how international consensus is reached. One of the days could be an outreach or training event for the local or regional community.

There are some basic requirements for hosting an RSC meeting which are described in RSC/Operations/6.

The decision on the location and dates will be made through negotiation as well as consultation with the copyright holders and the RDA Board.

If you are interested in hosting, or have questions, please contact Renate Behrens, RSC Chair, at rscchair@rdatoolkit.org by Monday, 29 January 2024.
