Open Science: Following the Roadmap for Research – Focus on Inclusiveness – Nov. 16, 2021

This is the third session in the University of Toronto Libraries (UTL) hosted virtual series, Open Science: Following the Roadmap for Research, for the month of November. Each session is guided by one of the 5 principles of open scholarship as outlined in the "Roadmap for Open Science", published by the Government of Canada (Feb. 2020). This session will Focus on Inclusiveness.
