UPDATE: NIH Library Scholarly Publishing Symposium Canceled

UPDATE: In support of the Office of Personnel Management guidance to strengthen our efforts to protect the federal workforce to ensure continuity of operations, NIH is urging staff to limit work-related attendance at large meetings to those that are mission critical. 

Based on this guidance from NIH, the NIH Library is canceling the "Scholarly Publishing Symposium: Elevate Your Research Visibility" (https://www.nihlibrary.nih.gov/scholarly-publishing-symposium) previously scheduled for March 18. We will not be videocasting the event.
