Open Research EssentialsOnline and Library Training RoomOpen Research refers to a set of practices that aims to make the constituent parts of the research process as ‘open’ (accessible, sharable, reproducible) as possible to demonstrate the research's quality, integrity and reproducibility. Sometimes referred to as ‘Open Science’ or ‘Open Scholarship’, open research can touch every part of your projects, everything from the decisions you make while planning projects, to how to collect and manage your research data and software to peer review, publication and promotion. Whatever form it takes, Open Research has benefits for academia, it benefits the public good, and it has benefits for individual researchers. Nevertheless, Open Research can mean different things to different subjects and different researchers and it is not always easy for researchers to know how and to what extent they can engage with these ‘open’ practices in their research. In this session, we will explore the research cycle through the lens of Open Research culture to consider the different ways you can make your research ‘open’. |

Critical AI Use for ResearchersOnline and Library Seminar Room, Second FloorWhether you are an enthusiastic adopter of artificial intelligence (AI) tools, have serious objections, or are somewhere in between, AI is increasingly embedded in research infrastructure, from library search tools and reference managers, to writing and analysis.
This session will help you to navigate this landscape by exploring what it means to use AI critically: making informed, ethical, and transparent decisions about whether, when, and how AI tools might support your research. It will consider questions that arise at different stages of the research process, from articulating research goals, to conducting an AI-assisted search or engaging with an AI assistant, evaluating their outputs and documenting and acknowledging their use.
