Open Research is encouraged by the University and is increasingly mandated by research funders. If you’re wondering how Open Research can apply to your research and benefit you as a researcher, such as through allowing larger audiences to access your work, this session is aimed at you. The session will feature an interactive activity allowing you to map where Open Research might benefit your work in the research life cycle and how the Library can support you to do this. You will come away with a set of actionable ideas you can implement to benefit your research and open your work to a wider audience.
