  4. October OpenCon Community Call


Will you come?

Details

OpenCon community calls give a chance for you to learn what's happening in open research and education around the world, share what you're doing and find collaborators and opportunities. 

Call Agenda

During this month's call, we'll be doing our usual updates and requests for help — but we'll also talking about this year's Open Access Week theme, "Open in Order To...". This year's theme explores the concrete benefits that be realized by making scholarly outputs openly available, and we'll be inviting guest speakers to talk about the benefits of open research for improving public health, finding collaborators and accelerating discovery, and enabling global participation in research. 

Speakers will be confirmed on the agenda closer to the call date. You can find all the proposed agendas and minutes from the community calls in one place, right here. The best way to share this link is with: http://bit.ly/OpenConCommunityCalls

Joining details

To join the conference call from your computer, go to https://www.uberconference.com/SPARCconference. 

To join the conference by phone within the US, dial 855 277 1599.  To join the conference by phone outside of the US, see https://www.uberconference.com/international.  This page provides local dial-in numbers for 50 countries.  If available, you can dial into the local number for your country then enter our conference line information when prompted (phone number: 855 277 1599).  If a local dial-in number isn’t available for your country, we suggest you either login from your computer using the instructions above or dial the US number using Skype.
Beware, calls are minuted and possibly recorded! What happens in community calls, doesn't stay in community calls. 

What to expect

Community calls are always friendly, and we love new faces. The more you participate, the more you'll get out of it! No doubt there will be a lot of this too.
