OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected to start before the end of Hilary Term to allow all future events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed on the Staff Gateway and via email to identified OxTalks users.

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.
