Description
The 2023 theme of International Open Access Week is “Community over Commercialization”. This theme particularly resonates with Canadian Science Publishing (CSP), a not-for-profit and community-focused scholarly publisher. In this informative and interactive webinar, CSP's team will provide an overview of open science (OS) and open access (OA), including key terminology and context, considerations around the benefits and remaining barriers associated with OA, and a discussion reflecting on this year’s OA Week theme. The session will conclude with an overview of recent OS and OA policies both internationally and within Canada, including the recent developments surrounding the Tri-Agency’s revised open access publishing policy, and a view for what the future may hold.
