A consultation on open publishing is scheduled for 22 October. This is a collaborative event where researchers can present a specific problem or ask a question related to this topic. The consultation will be onsite and will take place in the multimedia room of the Gdańsk University of Technolody Library in the Main Building from 1200 to 1400.

The goal of the Games Day is to get participants interested in modern trends in publishing and managing research data and to promote open science through interactive board games. Participants will have the opportunity to take part in board games with an open science theme, including FAIR Factor, where scientific influence is gained by applying FAIR principles, and DMPolly, whose theme is research data security in scientific projects. Games inspired by Taboo, Dobble and Memory will also be available.

The event is hosted by the Research Data Management and Open Science Section of the University of Gdansk Library

On the occasion of Open Access Week (October 21-27, 2024), the Gdańsk University of Technology Library invites you to a webinar devoted to the database for Polish scientific journals' copyright and Open Access policies, which will take place on October 23, 2024, from 10:00 to 11:00 am.
The database is created by the Gdańsk University of Technology Library employees as part of the MOST Wiedzy platform.

The meeting program includes: a presentation of the service, benefits of using the database, method of data collection, practical examples of searching for journals and ongoing activities.

The database provides a coherent framework and guide for all authors by presenting adequate information on where to publish scientific articles and how to make them open to the public. The profile of each Polish journal consists of the most essential information, such as publishing model, journal metrics, type of licence, and self-archiving conditions. All presented data meet the new requirements set out by the most important funding institutions in Poland (e.g. National Science Centre, Ministry of Science and Higher Education).

The webinar aims to familiarize users with the database and promote it among Polish librarians.
Participation in the webinar is free of charge, just use the link on the day of the meeting (23.10.20224 at 10:00): https://link.pg.edu.pl/baza_polityk_wydawniczych 
The meeting will be led by Kamila Kokot-Kanikuła on the MS Teams platform.

Open Access Seminar. We are organizing a discussion panel at the University of Lodz Library with the participation of experts who will share various experiences and perspectives with us – and with each other. We want to discuss topics such as: (absence) of open science in evaluation, non-bibliometric aspects of the evaluation of scientific activities, the specificity of the discipline and evaluation criteria, initiatives to improve the science evaluation system (especially the Coalition for Advancing Research Assessment: CoARA), possible directions of development of the Polish system for assessing science and scientists.
Open Access Seminar is free and open to all.

A webinar will be held on the topic of publishing in the Open Access model and the possibility of funding the associated fees, within the framework of agreements between the Gdańsk University of Technology and individual publishers.

Participation in the webinar is free of charge and no prior registration is required.

The webinar will be hosted by the staff of the Open Science Competence Centre.

An information campaign on the Gdańsk Tech Library's Facebook profile, where we encourage you to follow a series of posts dedicated to non-commercial platforms that support collaboration between members of the scientific community. In the virtual space, we will try to introduce the topic of preprint repositories, but we also invite you to visit us in the Main Building, where the librarians have prepared a promotional stand with small gifts.

A webinar on publishing in the Open Access model and the possibility of covering APC (article processing charge) costs as part of contracts with individual publishers will be held on 24.10.2023, from 10:00-11:00. The webinar will discuss the differences in publishing models, factors forcing the choice of a specific publication path (e.g. from research funding institutions), general principles and requirements of the programmes, as well as other funding options for the OA model available to employees of the Gdańsk University of Technology (e.g. OXYGENIUM programme).
