The Open Science Primer
FEBRUARY 16 EVENING UPDATE: WE ARE NOW ON A WAIT LIST FOR THIS EVENT.
YOU ARE WELCOME TO JOIN THE WAIT LIST BUT DO NOT MAKE UNREFUNDABLE TRAVEL PLANS UNTIL WE CONFIRM YOUR SPACE.
In this train-the-trainer style program, participants will prepare to meet the evolving Open Sciences needs and expectations of the research communities they support. This training aims to engage participants in techniques for teaching, communicating, and advocating for the various aspects of Open Science.
This training is designed for academic librarians, though others are welcome to participate. We recommend a maximum of three participants from the same institution, as learning about other institutions' approaches and challenges in Open Science is a major benefit to this training. All levels of experience are welcome. General knowledge of scholarly communications, research data management, or academic publishing is expected for participants.
