## What is Open Source Software (OSS)?
OSS is broadly defined as software that is freely distributed and uploaded to an accessible repository that provides source code. More specifically, code, data, or content has to be under an open source license, insofar that the code base is *accessible* at no cost (see [The Open Source Initiative](https://opensource.org/osd) for further definitions). It is also important to note that the Open Source model is decentralized and encourages open collaboration through its source code and documentation, which is freely available to the public. For a further discussion on OSS, see MERL’s guide on [Evaluating Open Source versus Proprietary Software](https://merlcenter.org/guides/evaluating-open-source-vs-proprietary-software/).
