Open Access: Global Perspectives
Wednesday, October 24 10:00 - 11:00 AM Noble Library Room 105
While governments, funders, universities, publishers and scholars are increasingly adopting open policies and practices, there are many variations in how these are implemented. As we continue to explore new options for creating and sharing scholarship, we must be intentional about designing these systems to ensure that they are inclusive, equitable and truly serve the needs of a diverse global community.
Join us for coffee and conversation exploring different scholar expectations, perceptions and practices for sharing scholarship around the world.
Speakers include: Qian Liu, Asian Studies Librarian; Anali Perry, Scholarly Communication Librarian; and Seonaid Valiant, Curator for Latin American Studies.
