Scholarly Communications Working Group

The Scholarly Communications Working Group (SCWG) is responsible for fostering a community of practice for librarians and library staff engaged in scholarly communications roles at COPPUL member libraries. The group's mandate includes providing forums for sharing information about scholarly communications issues and practices among COPPUL members, normally through both an annual in-person event and via online platforms throughout the year, and developing and helping to coordinate opportunities for collaboration with other COPPUL groups and members.

Terms of Reference

Terms of Reference for the SCWG were approved in September 2012 by the COPPUL Board of Directors and last revised in June 2021.
