EIFL’s partner consortium, the Kenya Libraries and Information Services Consortium (KLISC), is organizing training for institutional repository managers from five universities - Alupe University College, Amref International University, Chuka University, Laikipia University and University of Kabianga.

The training will cover various aspects of institutional repository management, including identifying content to be deposited; harvesting; understanding publisher copyright policies, and uploading processes. Dr George Gitau, Chief University Librarian at Kenyatta University and EIFL Open Access Coordinator in Kenya will facilitate the training, which is part of the ‘Institutional and national open access and open science roadmaps and training in Ethiopia, Kenya and Uganda’ project.
