NISO Virtual Conference, Open Research

Description

Open research — making the entire research process more transparent, and results more accessible, in the interest of reproducibility and verification — continues to gain momentum globally. This event looked at the current state of open research around the world, examining needs across different communities, and identifying next steps that might be useful in helping to meet those needs. The agenda covered a broad range of topics, including open peer review and data-sharing, reproducibility, and metrics for open access outputs, as well as the current and future role of publication in preserving the scholarly record.
