Taylor & Francis webinars on 23 April and 8 May

Taylor & Francis welcomes all who are interested to join the Understanding Open Research for HSS webinar on 23 April, and the How are Wikipedia citations building trust? webinar on 8 May.

Understanding Open Research for HSS

Time and date: Wednesday 23rd April 13-14.30pm CEST

Blurb: Research funders, institutions and publishers are increasingly talking about Open Research. As a broad term which encourages accessibility, transparency and reproducibility of research and supporting information, Open Research includes the practices of sharing data, code, preprints, methods, or working in new ways such as Registered Reports. In this webinar, aimed at researchers in the Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS), we will present the core tenets of open research and contextualise HSS within open research. We will then discuss the opportunities and challenges for HSS in moving to more open research practices, as well as how concepts of openness can apply to HSS research data.

Speakers: Matt Cannon, Dr Rebecca Taylor-Grant

How are Wikipedia citations building trust?

Time and date: Thursday, May 8, 2025, 09:00 AM CEST

Blurb: In this webinar, we’ll explore the growing trend of academic citations in Wikipedia, revealing how references to published, peer-reviewed research can enhance research visibility and build trust. We will introduce the significance of research citations in an increasingly uncertain age, share findings around author sentiment towards academic citations and learn how initiatives like The Wikipedia Library are bridging the gap between publishers and Wikipedia.
Discover how engaging with Wikipedia can boost the reliability and impact of your field of research. Plus, get a sneak peek at an upcoming collaboration between Wikipedia, Digital Science and Taylor & Francis. Join us this 8 May to understand and leverage Wikipedia’s evolving role in academia.

Speakers: Kath Burton (T&F), Vipin SJ (Wikipedia), Carlos Areia (Digital Science)
