Location: Zoom Webinar
Organisers: NORF Working Group on Open Access to research publications

As part of a webinar series on Open Research in Ireland, the National Open Research Forum (NORF) is presenting a webinar focused on Open Access to research publications.

NORF has been developing a National Open Research Landscape Report to summarise progress and challenges in each of the strategic areas of Ireland’s National Framework on the Transition to an Open Research Environment. Against this background, speakers will discuss national strategies for Open Access in Ireland, France and Denmark, and highlight key challenges and issues such as bibliodiversity. 

Speakers will include the chairs of NORF’s Working Group on Open Access (Susan Reilly, UCD & Niamh Brennan, TCD), Marin Dacos (Open Science Advisor, French Ministry of Higher Education, Research and Innovation), Hanne-Louise Kirkegaard (Senior Advisor, Danish Agency for Higher Education and Science) and Karen Hytteballe Ibanez (Senior Officer, Technical University Denmark).

This webinar is targeted at the national research community in Ireland: research support staff, librarians, researchers, and funder representatives.
