文摘
Experience developing multidisciplinary bachelor鈥檚 and master鈥檚 curricula involving intertwined chemistry, informatics, and librarianship鈥揺ditorship skills is described. The bachelor鈥檚 curriculum was created in close cooperation of academic staff, library staff, and the publishing house staff (Institute of Chemical Technology Prague: a sole publisher of chemical literature in Czech Republic), with the aim to educate a new generation of information retrieval and e-publishing professionals in the science鈥搕echnology鈥搈edicine (STM) field. This cooperation together with a set of specifically tailored courses gave students the insights into real-world issues of STM publishing. The master鈥檚 curriculum, heavily relying on the bachelor鈥檚 stage, inclines towards cheminformatics and deepens software engineering skills. Successes, pitfalls, and failures are described, together with proposed changes and future directions.
