The LMU Open Science Center’s (OSC) new website is live!
We now have a refreshed online home, with all of our training programs, resources, initiatives, members, and partners’ profiles in one place.

🔗 Explore it here: https://bit.ly/4uo0f9D

What you’ll find:

- Self-Learning Catalog - free hands-on self-paced tutorials and lecture recordings on open research skills, including R for reproducible analyses, Quarto for dynamic documents, and Git/GitHub for version control in research

- Research Cycle Handbook - practical guidance for researchers and research groups to embed open, responsible, and reproducible practices across the full research lifecycle

- Educator Toolkit - built around our train-the-trainer program, offering pedagogical training and ready-to-use materials to help educators deliver engaging Open Research training

- Announcements of workshops, events, and our upcoming annual Open Science Summer School

Join us in our journey of making open and reproducible research more accessible, practical, and scalable across disciplines!

#OpenScience #OpenResearch #OSC #LMUOpenScienceCenter

We’re excited to share that the LMU Open Science Center (OSC) will be presenting a poster at #FOR2026Munich - The Future of Open Research: Reliable, Responsible, Equitable. Happening from May 4 to 6, 2026, at the Institute for Advanced Studies, Technical University of Munich (https://opensciencestudies.eu/for-2026-conference/)

Our poster can be viewed and downloaded here: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.19626906. It highlights our efforts to embed open research practices at LMU Munich and beyond through a multi-angle approach.
We focus on two key initiatives:
- Switch-to-Open: a structured training and consultation program that helps research groups integrate open research practices across the full project lifecycle, from planning and data management to reproducible analysis and FAIR sharing.
- Train-the-Trainer: a program designed to equip researchers and research support staff with the pedagogical skills needed to teach and advocate for Open Research practices and tools within their own communities.

These initiatives are built on a broader foundation of accessible learning opportunities, including:
📚 A free self-learning catalog of online tutorials and lecture recordings (https://www.osc.lmu.de/training/self-learning.html)
🎓 Regular workshops throughout the year
☀️ Our annual Open Science Summer School (https://lmu-osc.github.io/Open-Science-Summer-School-2026/)

Together, these initiatives aim to make open research practices more practical, scalable, and sustainable across disciplines.

If you’re attending #FOR2026Munich, feel free to stop by and chat with us about training, institutional change, and building cultures of openness in research!

DataCite was founded as a collective effort by research organizations to build and sustain open infrastructure. We’ve always been and always will be a community for all research organizations and all types of research outputs. We’re evolving our membership model to realign with our guiding values and vision and make it possible for more organizations to contribute to shared open infrastructure: https://doi.org/10.5438/gc07-ah64
#OpenInfrastructure #OpenScience #OpenResearch

Please join us in welcoming the new research organizations that joined the DataCite member community in the last quarter. 👋 Together, we are advancing the visibility, openness, and impact of research through open metadata and connected infrastructure. Visit https://datacite.org/members to learn more about membership and the full list of DataCite member organizations.

New from Society & AI, Open Education Week 2026:

Domi Smithson, Research Support Librarian & Open Research Champion at Sheffield Hallam, examines what transparency requires when researchers rely on AI black boxes.

AI literacy, equity in knowledge production, and the hidden work of keeping research honest.

Building and maintaining open infrastructure is an active and ongoing process, and we align this work with the Principles of Open Scholarly Infrastructure (POSI) to be more intentional and transparent about how we support sustainability, community governance, and responsible stewardship. We’re proud to share an updated POSI self-assessment that reaffirms our commitment to openness: https://doi.org/10.5438/fdqk-vc49

"It's a fundamental shift in how scholarly discussions can work.

TL:DR a summary of our initial thoughts on #REF2029 #OA policy 🤔🧵

We welcome the principle of #OpenAccess by default that the policy proposes 👍

It's an opportunity for the #HE sector to embrace more ethical, community-led forms of publishing in research & teaching

But action needs to be taken to encourage #OpenResearch cultures✊
