UNED Library, along with the UNESCO Chair in Distance Education (CUED), will be holding the International Conference Open Libraries: open science, open learning, in Madrid, from September 30th to October 3rd. The conference will focus on research and learning in Europe and the role of university libraries as support units for universities in both processes.

The conference is also part of the Erasmus Staff programme, so participation is open to researchers, librarians and technicians from the scientific dissemination departments of any Spanish or European university. We will have the opportunity to learn about and discuss European and National programmes, projects and commitments, as well as to hold complementary working sessions between libraries of distance learning universities that work on common issues.

The conference can be attended in person and by streaming.
