Stacy Konkiel, Science Data Management Librarian, @skonkiel, and myself, Jen Laherty, Digital Publishing Librarian, @jlaherty, were asked to provide the Bloomington Library Faculty Council with an overview of Open Access. Here is our quick presentation, given December 4, 2013.
On a related note, the Bloomington Faculty Council Library committee, co-chaired by faculty Jason Baird Jackson, Director of the Mathers Museum of World Cultures and Associate Professor of Folklore and Ethnomusicology and Ted Striphas, Associate Professor and Director of Graduate Studies, Department of Communication and Culture, are leading a discussion to recommend, or not, that an open access deposit policy be adopted by Indiana University Bloomington Faculty. A similar conversation is happening at the IUPUI campus.
Librarians at IUB may wish to discuss an open access deposit policy for their scholarly outputs ahead of a campus policy – akin to those described in the seventh ‘think to know’ in the linked presentation.
