UKeiG CPD Workshop: Open Access, Open Monographs, Open Data, Open Peer Review: Overview of a Disruptive Technology | UK eInformation Group

The concept of Open Access to research outputs has been common currency for many years. This reflects the rapid growth of the Internet making different publication models easily available. More recent thinking has expanded the concept of openness even further, to Open Science (OS), which aims to transform science by making research more open, global, collaborative, creative and closer to society. This approach is being embraced by all academic disciplines. The shift is extremely important for the development and exploitation of research, and hence for the professionals who support it."
