I found the Global Certificate in Digital Libraries and Leadership to be a really valuable learning experience. The course covered a lot of ground, from the basics of digital libraries to more advanced topics like digital preservation and copyright law. One of the things that really stood out to me was the emphasis on leadership and management - it's not just about the technical skills, but also about how to lead a team and make strategic decisions. The course materials were generally good, although there were a few times when I felt like the readings could have been more in-depth. Still, I appreciated the flexibility of the online format and the ability to connect with other students from all over the world. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this course to anyone looking to get into digital libraries.
