This in-depth, four-hour workshop on May 12, 2026 will cover all major facets of open scholarship, from open data and open-source software to open access publishing. 

The Open Scholarship Crash Course will be held in the PCL Scholars Lab so that members of the campus community will have an opportunity to gather in person to learn about open scholarship resources, relevant services available to UT researchers, and best practices for sharing research outputs. 

This in-person session will take place from 10 am to 2 pm, and lunch will be provided for participants. If you have any questions about this event, please contact Michael Shensky at m.shensky@austin.utexas.edu
