[Rdap] RDAP Happenings May 2019

[Erica Mehan Johns]

Hello RDAP Community,



Conference


We’re in full countdown to the RDAP Summit on May 15-17 in Miami, FL. If you have not registered<https://rdapassociation.org/registration/> yet, there is still time to do so! We look forward to seeing everyone in Miami!



RDAP and JeSLIB will continue their partnership with a special issue for the 2019 Summit focusing on the Summit’s themes, “Building Communities.”  The issue will have an open submissions call, and we encourage all presenters (talk, poster, presentation) — especially first-time presenters — to submit. We also encourage first-time authors to enroll in the Summit workshop, “Turning Your Poster or Presentation into a Paper.” Submissions will be due June 30, 2019.


Check out the blog posts<https://rdapassociation.org/blog/> from each sponsoring institution to learn more about why sponsorship matters and what these folks are looking forward to at this year’s summit!

RDAP Board elections wrapped up for those who signed up to be RDAP members, you can still sign up to be a member <https://rdapassociation.org/membership/> even though the window to vote in the election has passed. The result from the election will be announced at the Summit. There will be an additional call for those interested in serving on Action Committees<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JvQarLJb2cFtX5iSYWkGK4VsdRrsss7wnB1ZxkFg0L8/edit?usp=sharing>.


It’s not too late to volunteer for the next year in the RDAP Association. Keep an eye out at the conference (and @RDAPassn<https://twitter.com/RDAPassn> on Twitter) for the volunteer form.


The RDAP Association OSF<https://osf.io/uydpe/> has been updated to include the leadership team’s meeting minutes.
