Open Science: Friend, Foe, or
Something Else?
Presenter: Patricia Condon, PhD, Research
Data Services Librarian
Open Science is a set of practices to
make research more transparent, reproducible, equitable, and collaborative by
increasing accessibility and reusability of research outputs. Open Science,
also referred to as Open Research or Open Scholarship, is relevant across all
disciplines. Open Science practices can be implemented throughout the research
lifecycle, from sharing data, code, and methods to open access publishing to
citizen science. In these Spring 2023 workshops we will celebrate the federal
Year of Open Science.
The first workshop provides an
overview of what Open Science is, how it relates to the changing funding policy
landscape, the range of Open Science practices that researchers can engage
with, and potential benefits and barriers to practicing Open Science.
Participants will learn about practices that comprise Open Science; be able to
identify what open practices they already incorporate into their research
workflows; and explain the potential benefits and barriers of Open Science
practices in their work.
