Register to attend info session on USDA public access requirements
Join K-State Libraries and the National Agricultural Library at noon Friday, June 21, for a virtual "train-the-trainer" on USDA public access requirements.
The United States Office of Science and Technology Policy has released two memos providing guidelines on public access awareness and compliance. This informational presentation on Departmental Regulation 1020-006, involving public access to scholarly publication and digital scientific research data assets, will provide details on how to meet requirements to submit final, peer-reviewed, accepted manuscripts to PubAg, the USDA public access archive system, and create catalog records for datasets in Ag Data Commons.
This session will be of interest to all who assist awardees and contractors engaged in USDA-supported scientific research. Departmental Regulation 1020-006 makes all peer-reviewed, scholarly publications and digital scientific research data assets supported by the USDA accessible to the public to the extent practicable. Departmental Regulation 1020-006 applies to NIFA grant awards, cooperative agreements and contracts started on or after Oct. 1, 2022.
Please register in advance for this session by filling out the online form.
