Connecting the Opens: Open Access, Open Education Resources, and Open Data

Connecting the Opens: Open Access, Open Education Resources, and Open Data

Join the University Libraries and invited guests for a discussion for future professors regarding open access, open educational resources, and open data.

Heather Joseph, the Executive Director of the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC), will join us to discuss the recent Office of Science and Technology Policy memo which ensures "free, immediate, and equitable access to federally funded research." Additionally, University Libraries’ faculty, Philip Young, Kayla McNabb, and Jonathan Petters will provide brief overviews of open access, open educational resources, and open data to provide some general information on the topics. Finally, presenters will discuss how aspects of open have impacted their career development as well as how they have incorporated open practices into their research and scholarship, and the audience will be invited to participate in the robust conversation. All are welcome!
