About This Event

Open Office Hours are hosted by the Copyright and Digital Scholarship Center (CDSC) to provide drop-in consulting on all things 'open.' Each session will have a topical theme (e.g. open licensing of software, open pedagogy) but guests are welcome to bring any question related to the ongoing shift of research and teaching into online and digital environments.

This week's office hours will focus on the increasing practice of sharing pre-prints of journal articles. Questions are welcome about: where to share pre-prints, why pre-prints are growing in popularity, how pre-prints are reviewed for quality and validity, and more. 

These office hours will be held in Zoom through the Fall semester; please email Micah Vandegrift for a Zoom link if you plan to drop-in.
