<div>Dear MEDIN Standards Mailing list and MEDIN Standards Working Group members,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>MEDIN would like to announce that the dates for the next series of MEDIN workshops have now been finalised. Eight free one-day workshops will take place over May 2017, August 2017, November 2017 and January and March 2018. These very popular and well-received
workshops are designed to help individuals and organisations make their marine data holdings discoverable and re-usable by future users.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>The workshops are modular, with a morning session on MEDIN Data Guidelines and an afternoon session on the MEDIN Discovery Metadata Standard and tools. MEDIN are happy for users to attend either the full day or just the morning or afternoon session, as
best suits individual needs.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>For full information on the workshops, and details on how to register, please go to <a href="http://www.oceannet.org/marine_data_standards/workshops.html"><font color="#0563C1"><u>http://www.oceannet.org/marine_data_standards/workshops.html</u></font></a></div>
<div> </div>
<div>MEDIN would be grateful if all recipients of this e-mail could cascade this to their stakeholders.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Many thanks and Happy Easter,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Sean Gaffney</div>
