    The IUPAC Subcommittee on Cheminformatics Data Standards (SCDS) is working across organizations to enable accurate exchange of chemical data within a FAIR data environment (FAIR = Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable). After presentations and discussions at conferences and workshops in 2017, a set of working groups is being formed in conjunction with IUPAC, the Research Data Alliance, and several chemical societies. Details about the project and working groups can be found at https://sites.google.com/view/digchem . The project will be launched via a webinar at 11 am EST on February 16, 2018. Please register for the webinar, sponsored by the Royal Society of Chemistry, at https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/5519710388124648962 .
    In conjunction with these working groups, a workshop is planned for July 16-17, 2018 in Amsterdam. This workshop, organized by IUPAC and CODATA (the Committee on Data for Science and Technology of the International Council for Science), will focus specifically on developing a GO FAIR network for chemistry, enabling access to chemical data by other domains, and spectral data standards and tools. More details about this workshop will be available later, but please mark those dates on your calendar now. If you would like to be receive email about that workshop, please send email to Leah McEwen at ***@***.*** .
    We invite you to join us for the webinar on February 16, 2018 at 11 am EST, and would very much appreciate your joining one (or more) of the Working Groups.
    We welcome participation across a wide range of interests within the chemistry community, to hear about your data needs and perspectives, as well as your involvement in our effort to help us meet those needs. We are also interested in participation from other disciplines, in order to make access to chemical research data more available and reusable outside chemistry.
    If you have any questions, please contact: Leah McEwen at ***@***.*** .
    Thanks,
    Dave Martinsen, on behalf of my co-chairs:
    Ian Bruno, CCDC
    Stuart Chalk, University of North Florida
    Richard Kidd, RSC
