The library is holding events across Flinders campuses over 21 to 27 October to promote and demystify Open Access, which benefits researchers by broadening the reach of their findings.

All staff are invited to come along to understand how the system works and find out how to get the most out of the various publishing options.

The informal Open Access Week events include pop-up Library chats in Colleges and a free lunchtime screening of the film Paywall: the business of scholarship.

Follow the Library on twitter and Facebook to get updates on the week, and find out more about the film to be screened here.

Open Access enables important research to reach a broad, relevant audience including professionals, practitioners and community members. Excellent information is available on the Australian Open Access Strategy Group’s website.
