Open science is a new approach to the scientific research process aimed at open sharing and dissemination of knowledge using digital technologies. This increases the transparency of research, encourages various forms of cooperation and accelerates the process of gaining new knowledge and the application of science in the economy. Open science is one of the strategic goals of the University of Split and an area in which it actively participates through the SEA-EU alliance. The University of Split is also a signatory to the Agreement on the Croatian Cloud for Open Science Initiative, as one of the institutions that are leaders in achieving the goals of open science in the Republic of Croatia. An open science workshop was organized with the aim of encouraging open access to scientific information and raising awareness of its importance. The workshop explained the basic principles of open science with an emphasis on open access, which covered the topics of versions of papers for publication, copyright, institutional repositories and the possibility of storing papers in open access with examples.
