This book brings contributions by researchers from different areas and a wide range of countries, including Brazil, who have a significant role and reflection in the field of open and collaborative science.The topic of open science is gaining ground not only within institutional environments for science, technology and innovation, but also in other contexts that, until now, were kept apart from these activities.As a result, it is mobilising other social groups as interlocutors of scientific practices.In turn, the resulting transformations in the relations between science, technology and society integrate the new dynamics of production and circulation of knowledge as well as the new role played by these dynamics in contemporary processes of social participation and change.It is hoped that this publication will provide an overview of topics and issues that both trace and permeate the topic of open science nowadays from different perspectives and points of view.Above all, it is hoped that it might instigate further reflection and foster new ways of producing and circulating knowledge.Thus, it is geared not only towards the academic world, but also to a broader range of social actors that concern themselves with the democratisation of knowledge and information.The book is inspired by the results of the discussions held during the International Seminar "Open Science, Open Questions" 1 that took place in Rio de Janeiro in 2014.The Seminar was organised by: the Brazilian Institute for Information in Science and Technology (IBICT), Open Knowledge Brasil (OKBr), the Federal University of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Unirio) and the Interdisciplinary Laboratory for the Study of Information and Knowledge (Liinc).We would like to thank Ibict, Unirio, the Brazilian Center for Research in Physics (CBPF), the National Research Network (RNP), the National Council for Scientific and Technological Development (CNPq), the Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (Capes) and the Carlos Chagas Foundation for Research Support of the State of Rio de Janeiro (Faperj) for the material and financial support that made this event possible.
