Open Access and Author Control of Copyright
An Oberlin College Library Workshop for Faculty
January 16, 2007
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.
