    The Role of Libraries in Citizen Science (presentation)
    (Ukrainian State University of Science and Technologies, Dnipro, 2024) Tautkeviciene, Gintare; Pranckute, Aiste
    ENG: Citizen science is part of open science, which is about engaging the public through research, collecting and using scientific data, and applying science-based knowledge to solve problems of public interest. The development of citizen science activities opens up opportunities for the involvement of libraries, which are already recognised as experts in providing information, support, assistance and communication services to the academic community. Libraries are often seen as facilitators of citizen science projects, organising and providing communication and information dissemination, organising and delivering training and coordinating other activities. These activities require the ability to adapt librarians' competences to new activities, different contexts and audiences, and to develop new skills and competences. Librarians need to acquire the competences to participate effectively in citizen science projects. This presentation introduces the experience from the development of an online training course for librarians and a full-day training courses in three Baltic countries.
