Finding and Re-using Open Scientific Resources   Print

informal, hands-on workshop will focus on finding and re-using open scientific resources - including public domain data,
Convened by Jonathan Gray, The Open Knowledge Foundation
Location: Large seminar room, LKL


This informal, hands-on workshop will focus on finding and re-using open scientific resources - including public domain data, open access journal articles, and open educational materials. We will look at existing tools for discovering open material, metadata standards for relevant material in different domains, and how researchers go about looking for the material they need.

In addition to focused discussions about legal and technological aspects of re-use, open scientific resources will be documented and tagged on CKAN, a registry of knowledge resources.
