Please join the Center for the Advancement of Digital Scholarship at 11 a.m. Nov. 17 in 118 Hale Library for a Zoom meeting with Jerry Sheehan, the assistant director for scientific data and information from the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy.

Sheehan is responsible for implementing administration efforts to increase public access to the results of federally funded research — both publications and digital data — and to enhance the reliability of scientific research results.
