2026 Edition

Erasmus Staff Training Week 2026 – Meet our Staff

Erasmus Weeks organised by ULiège Library are usually centred around a specific theme, bringing together librarians, managers, and project leaders who share similar experiences, interests, and challenges. However, beginning with the 2025 edition, and continuing in 2026, the format has evolved to offer participants the opportunity to meet a wider range of ULiège Library staff members with diverse professional backgrounds. This new format is a “Meet our Staff” week.

The “Meet our Staff” Erasmus Week allows participants to engage with various key figures within our library through thematic sessions. Attendees also have the opportunity to arrange private meetings with our staff and visit some of our facilities.

When

The “Meet our Staff” event will take place over five days, from the morning of Monday, 29 June, to the afternoon of Friday, 3 July 2026.

Where

Some sessions will take place on the city-centre campus and others on the Sart Tilman campus. Further information will follow.

Programme

The week will begin on Monday, 29 June, with a morning session dedicated to a general presentation of the University and ULiège Library.

The week will be structured around a series of half-day sessions focusing on projects or topics related to the following themes:

  1. Collections (print and electronic)
  2. Furniture and buildings (facilities and infrastructure)
  3. Open science (one full day)
  4. Preservation and heritage, including preservation and digitisation policies
  5. Support for teaching and research, particularly training for doctoral candidates and researchers
  6. Systems and data
