Celebrate Open Access Week

openaccessdisplay

Open Access Week is all about the academic and research community continuing to learn about the potential benefits of Open Access, sharing what they’ve learned with colleagues, and helping to make Open Access scholarship and research accessible. This year’s theme is Open for Whom? Equity in Open Knowledge. The free, immediate, online access to the results of scholarly research, and the right to use and re-use those results as needed, has the power to transform the way research and scientific inquiry are conducted. This year, the Open Access Advisory Council asks us to reflect on the following questions:

  • Whose interests are being prioritized in the actions we take and in the platforms that we support?
  • Whose voices are excluded?
  • Are underrepresented groups included as full partners from the beginning?
  • Are we supporting not only open access but also equitable participation in research communication?

The Marx Law Library supports Open Access by helping faculty and students publish scholarship to our College of Law Digital Scholarship Repository.
