Open Scholarship in Practice 2020
Join us November 2–6 for a week of free webinars and workshops exploring the practice of open scholarship — from new tools that can increase the reproducibility of research, to new pedagogies that become possible when students and faculty members become co-creators engaged in meaningful, generative knowledge creation. Hear from UBC colleagues who are incorporating “openness” in innovative ways to enhance teaching, research, and public impact.
Explore the full event calendar <https://open.ubc.ca/osip2020/> here<https://libcal.library.ubc.ca/calendar?cid=7544&t=g&d=0000-00-00&cal=7544&c…>, or browse the sessions below.
Here is a highlight of a few of the sessions!
Working in Public: Generosity and the Knowledge Commons
Date: Tuesday, November 3, 2020
Time: 12:00 pm – 1:30 pm
Location: A Zoom video conferencing link will be provided prior to the event to all who are confirmed to participate.
Featured Keynote: Kathleen Fitzpatrick, Director of Digital Humanities and Professor of English Michigan State University
Working in public, and with the public, can enable scholars to build vital, sustainable research communities, both within their fields, with other scholars in different fields, and with folks off-campus who care about the kinds of work that we do. By finding ways to connect with a broad range of publics, in a range of different registers, and in ways that allow for meaningful response, we can create the possibilities for far more substantial public participation in and engagement with the humanities, and with the academy more broadly. This talk explores the ideas in Professor Fitzpatrick’s influential book, Generous Thinking, and will focus on the challenges posed by working in public and the skills required to develop more publicly engaged scholarship.
Co-sponsored by the UBC Library and the UBC Public Humanities Hub.

Emerging Perspectives in Open Access Book Publishing
Date: Wednesday, November 4, 2020
Time: 10:00 am – 11:00 am
Location: A Zoom video conferencing link will be provided prior to the event to all who are confirmed to participate.
Open Access monograph publishing is a rapidly expanding and evolving strategy for making scholarly work globally accessible. Universities, academic publishers, libraries, and scholarly organizations are developing new initiatives, partnerships, services, and business models to support open access options for authors of scholarly monographs, textbooks, and academic books. This event will explore the opportunities, challenges, and experiences of OA book publishing from the perspective of authors, series editors and publishers. You are invited to join a panel discussion of UBC faculty and publishers that will address their motivations for “going open”, as well as the processes, impacts, and changes that OA is bringing to academic book publishing.
Panellists
* Katherine Bowers, Katherine Bowers, Associate Professor of Slavic Studies, UBC Department of Central, Eastern, and Northern European Studies
* Megan Brand, Production Editor, UBC Press
* Rupert Gatti, Co-founder and Director of Open Book Publishers; Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge, Director of Studies in Economics

Publishing As Open Pedagogy: OJS & Pressbooks
Date: Wednesday, November 4, 2020
Time: 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
Location: A Zoom video conferencing link will be provided prior to the event to all who are confirmed to participate.
As open education continues to gain traction in higher education, many are looking for ways to expand their integration of open approaches beyond merely the inclusion of open materials. Open publishing is beginning to emerge as one pathway towards greater engagement in openness in the classroom. This panel will introduce participants to five people working in various capacities to support student publishing through Open Journal Systems and PressBooks, two open source publishing platforms that allow for open dissemination of student-created, instructor-supported content.

Hello all,
Please find the agenda for Monday's meeting attached. I've also included the minutes from our September meeting for review (thanks, Donna, for recording these!).
The Zoom invite is provided below. Please note that you will need the passcode 300873 to enter the meeting room. Unfortunately, Langara has recently experienced an uptick in 'Zoom bombings,' in which someone unknown to the group enters the meeting room with the purpose of creating general upheaval. Thanks to Lin for adding an item about creating safe online spaces to our agenda.
Have a wonderful weekend and see you all (online) soon,
Lindsay
