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
The first 3 days of the event will take place on the Sart Tilman campus (Urbanists District, address: Traverse des Architectes, 4000 Liège) and the last 2 days will be held on the city-centre campus in the Outremeuse district, Building L5 – Language Training Centre (address: Rue de Pitteurs 18, 4020 Liège).
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:
- Collections (print and electronic)
- Furniture and buildings (facilities and infrastructure)
- Open science (one full day)
- Preservation and heritage, including preservation and digitisation policies
- Support for teaching and research, particularly training for doctoral candidates and researchers
- Systems and data
- User services
Several library visits will be organised. A debriefing session will take place on Friday, 3 July, at the end of the morning.
A more detailed programme will be shared with all participants in May.
