In this virtual panel session, we will hear the experiences of a group that are all involved in rolling out open source programs in the university setting from the US and Europe. Sayeed Choudhury (JHU), Stephen Jacobs (RIT), Stephanie Lieggi (UCSC) and John Whelan (TCD) will examine the similarities and differences between the OSPOs in each institution in terms of the role they play, and the challenges they face as their OSPOs evolve over time. Topics to be covered include: where an OSPO can be housed within an academic institution, how to manage stakeholders, educational objectives, and how and OSPO can impact the broader goal of Open Science. This session will be moderated by Clare Dillon, from the OSPO++ Network.
