  • About the authors

Open science promotes more transparent, accessible, and reproducible research and extends beyond the sciences, fostering this inclusivity across all disciplines. There are many benefits to practicing open science, including opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration, increased visibility and impact, and enhanced reproducibility and reusability of research.
 
The Open Science Cookbook provides a wide variety of lesson plans and learning activities for supporting collaborative, transparent, openly accessible, and reproducible research. In five sections, it has something for beginners to more advanced practitioners and for different audience sizes. 

  • Program Development
  • Instruction
  • Outreach
  • Events
  • Collaborations and Partnerships

Just as freely sharing data and workflows enables key breakthroughs in major fields, sharing open science practices and resources creates an even stronger foundation for this necessary growth at institutions around the world. The Open Science Cookbook offers innovative ways for academic libraries to promote open science through advocacy and education. This book is also available as an open access edition.
