Nueva edición del curso en Twitter sobre acceso abierto | Biblioteca de la UOC

[google transl.] New edition of the Twitter course on open access

Do you want to know how the world of open access works? The UOC Universitat Oberta de Catalunya] is coordinating, with the collaboration of other Catalan universities and Universitat Jaume I, a new edition of its free Twitter course on open access.

The course on open access via Twitter is one of the main activities during the International Open Access Week, from 22 to 28 October. By means of different tweets it will be possible to get to know how the world of open access is articulated and to know good practices and advice to optimise this type of publication.

All you have to do is follow the @moocmicro account and the #OAMOOC label (#OAMOOC18 in English), from where contents will be published every day (Monday 22nd to Friday 26th) at 10am. From this account or the label you can send your comments and questions to interact with the organization. This initiative, although especially aimed at researchers and university students, is open to anyone who is interested.

This second edition of a micro-MOOC, which has more than 600 followers, will serve to bring closer basic concepts and notions about open access, with an informative language, facilitating a transversal vision of good practices, initiatives, standards and tools on a series of topics (Introduction to Open Access. RRI and Open Science, Publishing on Open Access, Research Data, Publishing Licences and Authors' Rights and Visibility and Impact) with articles, images and videos, among other resources. This course will be taught in Catalan and English.

This micro-MOOC has been coordinated by the UOC -also within the framework of the UOC R&I Meeting Days- cycle- and forms part of the impulse that the university is giving to open knowledge within the framework of its Open Knowledge Action Plan. It has the support for the elaboration of the contents of the libraries of the University of Barcelona, the Autonomous University of Barcelona, the Polytechnic University of Catalonia, the Pompeu Fabra University, the University of Girona, the University of Lleida, the Rovira i Virgili University, the Ramon Llull University, the University of Vic - Central University of Catalonia and the Universitat Jaume I.
