Today, we interview Anke Versteeg and Nicole Will from the library of Delft University of Technology to learn more about the topic of open science. We learn what we can do to contribute to open science, and learn how open science is much more than open access publishing, as well as where researchers can learn more about open science (for example the open science MOOC). Data management is key here!

Besides the concepts of open science, we also learn how librarians support researchers in their efforts to make their science more open. We also learn from the experience of Nicole and Anke who have worked with many researchers to get their best advice in moving towards open science, as well as their general recommendations for PhD researchers.
