Open Access Week
October 19-25, 2015
“’Open Access’ to information – the free, immediate, online
access to the results of scholarly research, and the right to use and re-use
those results as you need – has the power to transform the way research and
scientific inquiry are conducted. It has direct and widespread implications for
academia, medicine, science, industry, and for society as a whole.
Open Access (OA) has the potential to... ...increase the exposure and use of published research, facilitate the ability to conduct research across available literature, and enhance the overall advancement of scholarship. Research funding agencies, academic institutions, researchers and scientists, teachers, students, and members of the general public are supporting a move towards Open Access in increasing numbers every year.”
