Celebrate Open Access Week 2012
"A global event, now in its 6th year, promoting Open Access as a new norm in scholarship and research." http://www.openaccessweek.org/
Scholarly communication is changing!
Many research outputs are now published in open access (OA) journals, or deposited in open access repositories. Governments and funders support open access to publicly-funded research. New business models are emerging, and new opportunities are available to increase visibility of research.
