There's Still Time - Submit a Proposal for KSU's All Things Open Week 2025!

  • 1.  There's Still Time - Submit a Proposal for KSU's All Things Open Week 2025!

    Posted Jan 21, 2025 11:17 AM

    (Posting on behalf of a colleague)

    We invite all interested parties to submit a proposal for Kennesaw State University Libraries' annual All Things Open Week virtual conference, co-hosted by Texas Tech University Libraries! We're dedicated to promoting inclusive, intentional open access practices regardless of discipline or audience. The theme of All Things Open 2025 is "Sustainable Growth." 
    What does "all things open" encompass?  
    • Open access publishing  
    • Open data  
    • Open educational resources  
    • Open pedagogy  
    • Open science   
    • Open-source software  
    • Open licensing and fair use  
    • And any other efforts to increase access and equity!  
    Speakers may choose to present either a lightning talk or a full-length presentation.  
    The submission portal is open now through 11:59PM on February 7, 2025. Please note the corrected deadline (prior CFP announcements listed an incorrect date of March 17). For more information and to submit a proposal, please follow this link: https://digitalcommons.kennesaw.edu/ato/cfp.html Click to follow link." target="_blank" rel="noopener">digitalcommons.kennesaw.edu/ato/cfp.html 
    Thanks!
