Open Preprints: Licensing and Other Practical Policy Tools for Research Funders, Librarians, and Institutions

Event Details

As we celebrate 25 years of Creative Commons, we’re inviting investigators, funders, libraries, and institutions in the research space to connect with our legacy of openly licensing research as a primary way of strengthening the open infrastructure of sharing.

You’re invited to join CC staff for an interactive, 60-minute webinar and discussion about our work with experts across the research ecosystem to adopt open licensing and research preprints, in collaboration with major preprint platforms and funders.
