Workshop: Licensing Your Research Data

This practical workshop, delivered by the UBC Library Research Data Management team, explores how licensing supports responsible sharing, reuse, and attribution of research data. Aimed at graduate students, researchers, and staff, the session highlights best practices for applying data licenses that align with FAIR and open science principles within the Canadian data landscape.

Participants will learn how to:

  • Distinguish between copyright and data ownership

  • Select appropriate licenses for research data reuse and sharing

  • Apply Creative Commons licenses effectively
