On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
A Bodleian Open Scholarship Event
This event discusses issues of loss of access to datasets in the context of the current situation in the US, where US federal datasets are at risk of deletion and funding withdrawal. In addition to the current US context, we’ll look at other examples of data rescue efforts and discuss the impacts on research, teaching, and beyond. We’ll cover how data access and preservation is supported by open scholarship methods and infrastructure, and consider the implications for future approaches. The session will include perspectives from colleagues at Oxford about data access and data rescue efforts.
