Summary:

Launching the updated Open Access Button and Mobile App  Last November we launched a the Open Access Button beta.  This Open Access Week, after months of tireless work, we’ll be launching the new, updated version of the Open Access Button and an all new companion mobile app. The launch will take place during Open Access Week with events across the world (with your help) and a official launch and press Q+A in London on Tuesday, October 21st. Building the Button would’ve been impossible without the help of the community, and once again we need the community’s support to make it a success.  How you can be part of the Button’s Launch  Hosting an Open Access Button launch event can be done in two mains way. First, you can incorporate some time into events you’re already doing or put on a dedicated event! Either way it’s about getting the Button in front of people, demonstrating what it does and getting people excited! The easiest way to do this is by showing our videos, demonstrating how the Button works and telling people about the story behind it (all of which we’ll help you do) but you can also thinking bigger! Don’t be afraid to invite us along to speak, or think more innovatively about how to get the Button in front of people.  How we’ll support you!  Each event host will be assigned a team member to help with event planning, so we’re happy to chat through ideas with you – but this is your event. We’ll also provide you with materials and anything else you need to do an event. You can host the event in any way that suits your institution or community ..."
