Figure 283120: Year of Open Science Book Image
A book lays open, it's pages fluttering at the bottom of the image. Above, scientific symbols are arranged inside hexagons: a caduceus, an atom, a mortarboard set on books, a wind turbine, a microscope, a brain, a rocket, and a budding plant.
In January 2023, the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy (OSTP) launched the Year of Open Science, featuring actions across the federal government to advance national open science policy, provide access to the results of the nation's taxpayer-supported research, accelerate discovery and innovation, promote public trust, and drive more equitable outcomes.
The Department of Energy, represented by the Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI), has joined other federal agencies to promote and contribute to the Year of Open Science. Throughout 2023, federal agencies are collaborating to inspire open science engagement through events and activities that will advance adoption of open, equitable, and secure science.
DOE OSTI, in conjunction with its role as the host of the Science.gov site, also hosts and maintains the Year of Open Science website - Open.Science.Gov. Participating agencies, including DOE, provide routine updates on their Open Science initiatives and activities. DOE's contributions have featured PIDs@OSTI.GOV (DOE's persistent identifier services), the Public Reusable Research (PuRe) Data Resources, and DOE CODE (the DOE software services platform and search tool).
