The PAARL Board of Directors is delighted to invite members and interested individuals to our annual PAARLNet Convention, themed The Role of Libraries in Digital Transformation. This event will be held online via Zoom on 06 December 2024, from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM
PAARLNet is our yearly gathering dedicated to sharing best practices and resources that address the evolving needs of library patrons. This year, we will focus on navigating digital transformations, with in-depth discussions on compliance and rights in the digital realm.
The primary objectives of the convention are to:
- Ensure Legal Compliance: Help libraries comply with copyright laws and licensing agreements, ensuring that digital resources are accessed and used legally.
- Educate Users on Copyright Issues: Empower patrons with knowledge about copyright, fair use, and licensing terms, helping them understand their rights and responsibilities.
- Develop and Implement Policies: Establish consistent policies and guidelines on copyright and licensing to protect creators’ rights and support users’ access needs.
- Support Digital Literacy Initiatives: Promote digital literacy by teaching users how to find, evaluate, and use digital materials legally and ethically.
- Curate Digital Collections: Manage digital collections by balancing the acquisition of copyrighted materials with the preservation of public domain works and open access resources.
We are thrilled to offer this convention FREE OF CHARGE TO ALL OUR MEMBERS. Non-members who wish to attend can join by filling out the PAARL Membership Form and paying the Php300 membership fee.
