Open Access & Author Control of Copyright: a Workshop for Faculty

Two leading open access advocates will be on campus to lead a faculty workshop on Tuesday, January 16, 10 a.m., Mudd 443:

Peter Suber, Research Professor of Philosophy at Earlham College, author of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter, and
Michael Carroll, Associate Professor of Law at Villanova University, author of the SPARC Author Addendum.

The workshop will provide an overview of the growing international movement to create open access to scholarship through open access journals and open archiving. It will include practical advice on how Oberlin authors can exert control over their copyright and make their peer-reviewed journal articles and other work more accessible in digital repositories, such as the Ohio Digital Commons, which will be available later this year.

Contact the library administrative office (x55041) to register for the workshop.
