Classes & events: MIT Libraries -- Research Funder Open Access Requirements from DOE and Other Federal Agencies

"Do you or your colleagues get or seek federal funding for your research? Want to stay up-to-date on rules to get your next grant, or help others with managing their grant requirements? Come to this session and learn about new requirements from the federal government for open access: in 2013, the White House directed all large federal agencies to develop requirements for open access to publications and data created through research they fund. These requirements are now being implemented, starting with the Department of Energy (DOE). In the session, staff from the Office of Sponsored Programs and the Libraries will: * provide an overview of the new requirements * focus on the requirements that have been issued from the Department of Energy * update you on any additional requirements released in time for this session * describe services at MIT that can help you comply with these requirements In addition, guest speaker Martin Greenwald, Associate Director of the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center, and former Chair of the DOE Fusion Energy Sciences Advisory Committee, will give you an inside look at the DOE requirements."
