OxTalks is Changing
Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.

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.
