In July 2019, the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (German Research Foundation, DFG) published the new code "Guidelines for Safeguarding Good Scientific Practice". The code refers to changes in the scientific re-search and publication process resulting from digital transition and to new structures and forms of cooperation in science. A mandatory culture of scientific integrity is to be expedited based on the professional ethics of scientists.
In her talk, Nicole Walger, Director UB Duisburg-Essen, will highlight the role university libraries can play in striving for truth and objectivity or in upholding scientific professional ethics.
The 17:15 Colloquium offers a platform for further education and discussion of topics related to libraries, museums and archives. The formula: a 30-minute lecture + a 30-minute discussion + small-group discussion = inspiration for our daily working lives.
