In response to feedback from participants, this event will be focused on discussion and ideas.  Participants will have an opportunity to suggest ideas and choose topics they’d like to explore.  All topics related to open data, open access, open education, open research, open collections and archives, and open science are welcome. This is your opportunity to shape discussions. Participants are welcome to forward suggestions to Lorna Campbell lorna.m.campbell@ed.ac.uk in advance of the meeting and will also be able to put forward ideas on the day.  

This is also your opportunity to discuss the future of the UoE Open Knowledge Network and how we can sustain this initiative in the future.
