Science thrives on the open exchange of knowledge. The Open Science movement is increasingly shaping science, science policy and science funding worldwide. The year 2023 has been declared the "Year of Open Science" by the White House and NASA, together with other US federal departments and agencies, to publicise, promote and expand measures and benefits of open science.

The Freiberg University Library has taken these developments as an opportunity to set up a new service: the Open Science Snack. Since June 2023, we have been informing you regularly in short articles (max. 1 page) about the most important open science topics for your everyday research (e.g. open access publication funding at TUBAF, research data management, open science initiatives), tailored to the range of subjects and existing infrastructures at TU Bergakademie Freiberg. We also provide you with an overview of current developments in science policy and funding requirements as well as useful tips on events, publications, podcasts, tools, etc. in the context of open science.
