International Open Access Week Posted on October 24, 2022 at 10:00 am. October 24 to 30 is Open Access Week, an international opportunity for the academic and research community to share the benefits of open access, and inspire wider participation to make open access the new norm. Open Access is the free, immediate, online access to scholarly research, and the right to use and re-use it as needed. Faculty should look at our Open Education page for information on our OER toolkit, open media, and help to find or create open resources. Students can find databases of open resources and guides on open images. SHARE:
