Welcome to the OpenCon Community

Welcome to the OpenCon community. With the annual events at the core, OpenCon supports a dynamic, diverse, and growing community that works year round to advance Open Access, Open Education and Open Data. The OpenCon community is open to anyone—not just those who have attended the main conference or a satellite event. Together, we can and are build a conference and, more importantly, a community that makes a difference.

February 2021 Librarian Community Call

Our speaker for the February 9th call is Mairelys Lemus-Rojas. Here's the title and blurb for her talk:
The Scholarly Profiles as Service model at IUPUI

This talk will focus on discussing the Scholarly Profiles as Service (SPaS) model developed and implemented at Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis. The SPaS model aims to provide representation for IUPUI-affiliated faculty and their scholarly research in Wikidata. By sharing these data in the knowledge base, IUPUI University Library is actively contributing to the growth of the bibliographic citation ecosystem in a repository that is free and open.
This call brings together all librarians working with, or learning about, all things Open--and gives folks an opportunity to connect with each other to better their work and librarianship.
