University of Michigan Library Hosts Events on Open Access
Check out the great open access events going on this week at the University of Michigan, sponsored by the University Library. If you aren’t around Ann Arbor, be sure to borrow the ideas for future events, discussion, and action at your institution.
“The University of Michigan University Library is hosting a week-long, campus-wide exploration of Open Access during the month of March. We define Open Access as free, permanent, full-text, online access to peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly material. The series of events will bring together scholars, publishers, authors, copyright experts, and librarians from a range of disciplines to discuss the impact of Open Access on academic research and publishing. The mission of universities and libraries is to ensure public access to knowledge, and we will examine the role the Open Access movement may play in service of that mission.”
