Open source software development is increasingly common in many areas of academic work, however researchers who write software must balance a host of disciplinary and institutional expectations to share their code. This workshop provides an introduction to open source software licensing with particular focus on the needs of Penn State researchers. Topics include: the importance of software licenses, common open source licenses used in scientific software projects, and recommendations for navigating relevant university policies. Ana Enriquez will teach this workshop. Participants will earn SARI credit.
