Open In Order To…Fulfill Our Vision for Universal Access to Research and Education

"Today we’re wrapping up another inspiring Open Access Week. We’ve talked about a variety of issues, including the continued adoption of open access policies that require CC licensing in order to maximize reuse potential, the moral imperative to reform copyright so students aren’t prosecuted for sharing knowledge, the massive potential for preprints to accelerate research and scientific discovery, and the importance of improving access to the laws, regulations, and standards that uphold democratic societies."
