Abstract: V0.1 of the OSAT Agreements and powerpoint presentation for the inaugural Open Science In Action Symposium (November 19, 2019). **Disclaimer: These agreements are templates and still in development . They are provided for discussion and shared development but nothing contained in the OSAT should be construed as legal advice or forming a lawyer client relationship. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee that any document herein is appropriate for your use. They are provided for your information and modification but no party involved with the creation of the OSAT is to be held liable for any claim or dispute arising from their use or distribution.** Keep in mind these are Beta release versions to enable community engagement and distributed development. They will take more work to hone them and adapt them to to different contexts. Furthermore, while the documents created for the OSAT are designed to uphold the open science pillars discussed above that is not necessarily the case for the documents collected from elsewhere. We want to provide you with as many resources as we can so you can contrast and compare, but that doesn't mean they all use the same approach. The approach taken depends on many variables and needs to be carefully considered within the context of any given organization. Acknowledgements We would like to thank Healthy Brains Healthy Lives for funding the work that went into creating these initial OSAT documents as a Knowledge Mobilization Grant under the title 'Open Science Policy Mobilization'. Prof. Richard Gold was the lead principle investigator with Prof. Bartha Knoppers, Prof. Yann Joly, and Dr. Jason Karamchandani as co-investigators. We would further like to thank Mr. Max Morgan and the Structural Genomics Consortium for providing copies of their agreements as starting material as well as for advice throughout the project. Similarly, we would like to thank Dr. Jason Karamchandani for providing documents developed for use by the CBIG Repository at The Neuro.
