During the hectic publication process, proper recognition of software is often overlooked. In this session, we’ll share best practices for citing software, addressing tricky issues like authorship and versions. Then, we’ll offer some tips on making your own software citable, findable, and reusable.
The Data to Discovery Series is hosted by Research Data Services (RDS) @ the UCSB Library. Every two weeks, we will spotlight a key principle of working with data and engaging in open science. These 30-minute sessions provide quick introductions to practical tools, useful resources, and proven practices—alongside with opportunities to hear from experts and connect with fellow researchers. Whether you’re starting out or refining your workflow, Data to Discovery offers a welcoming space to strengthen your skills and spark new ideas.
