The upcoming WHSLA Wisdom Chat features Ashley Zeidler on the topic of Professional Growth in Data Services.
Friday, September 26, 2025 from 2-3 pm CST
In this Wisdom Chat, Ashley Zeidler, MLIS, Scholarly Communications Librarian at The Medical College of Wisconsin Libraries, will share her experience going through the 2024 cohort of the Data Services Continuing Professional Education (DSCPE) program. This twelve-week program included learning modules from RDMLA, live sessions with data science professionals, and a capstone project which allowed participants to work directly with a mentor institution. This proved to be an invaluable experience that I would encourage anyone else who is interested in data services to apply for.
WHSLA Wisdom Chats are open to all WHSLA members in good standing. Meeting invitations will go out in early September. If you are a current member and did not receive an invitation, please contact Michele Matucheski, WHSLA Wisdom Chat coordinator filling in for Barb Ruggieri this year. There's still time to join/renew your membership, if you want to attend this session.
This session will be recorded and made available for later viewing on the members only section of the WHSLA Website. Special thank you to Paije Wilson and Ebling Library for hosting and recording the session.
