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.
