Description: Dear FORCE11 community,

https://mailchi.mp/force11.org/fsci-2020-online-4107893

We are pleased to announce that the FORCE11 Scholarly Communications Institute (FSCI) is GOING ONLINE this summer! The FSCI community will host a vibrant and rich online educational experience — from the comfort of your own home — between August 3-13, 2020.

The backbone of FSCI is our community-curated selection of high-quality courses, taught by FSCI community members, and drawing attendees from different disciplines and regions to learn with and from each other. Synchronous course sessions will be staggered throughout each day, and many interactive aspects will be asynchronous, to accommodate learners from every time zone. Sixteen courses have been confirmed. They include:
