Information accessibility

About this

Open access doesn’t mean “anyone can publish anything”! It refers to the ability of anyone to view, download and use scholarly information and benefits everyone, not just academics.

Information made available through open access is freely available to all users everywhere – and it’s something the library sector should back wholeheartedly.

Open access includes platforms, content, and data
E-book business model transformed
Publishers as partners
Plan workshops for faculty about the importance of open access
Advocate for the inclusion of open-access journals
Educate public library users on how open-access issues impact their ability to access pertinent information, particularly medical and other scientific information
