SPARC Open Access 101 Session 1: OA Foundations - YouTube

"Open Access (OA) is a well-established mode of distributing scholarly research that impacts academic libraries and librarians at every level. If you’re feeling unclear on foundational concepts, or want a refresher, this session is for you. We covered the basics, including definitions, the development and aspirations of the OA movement, approaches, challenges, and what basic outreach might look like, as well as entry level resources for learning more. This session is the anchor of a three-part series which also includes OA Case Studies and Emerging Issues in OA."
