UKeiG CPD Course: Open Data and Open Peer Review: Transforming Scholarly Communication
Wednesday, 7th December 2022 - 1:00 pm to 4:00 pm
The concept of Open Access to research outputs has been common currency for many years. The rapid growth of the Internet has made different publication models easily available. More recent thinking has expanded the concept of openness even further, to Open Science. Open Data and Open Peer Review are attracting increasing interest and are being embraced by all academic disciplines, including the humanities and social sciences. These approaches are extremely important for the development and exploitation of research, and hence for the professionals who support it..
Who should attend?
Research support, information and library professionals keen to understand the impact of Open Data and Open Peer Review on publishing, and on their organisations and current and future service provision.
The key aim of the workshop is to provide a state-of-the-art overview of Open Data and Open Peer Review issues and to encourage discussion amongst library and information professionals who support research. It will benefit LIS professionals across all subjects, sectors and disciplines who are new to, interested in or needing a refresher on these issues..
Topics covered include:
- Open Science – what it encompasses; the rationales given (by the OECD for instance) for its development
- Open Data – what it is; principles; how it is managed; policy development; practical experiences of researchers
- Open Peer Review – traditional peer review practice, the characteristics of Open Peer Review, definitions, the spread of Open Peer Review, the role of repositories and overlay journals
- New publishing formats, peer review and quality assessment platforms that enable research communities to collaborate (Octopus and ResearchEquals, for example)
- Implications for the future - our world turned upside down?
