SUNY Open Access Week 2016

In honor of Open Access Week (October 24-30) the SUNY Council of Library Directors (SCLD) invites you to attend a series of webinars. These webinars feature talented and engaging speakers, each providing perspectives on why Open Access is such a critical issue for higher education and scholarly publishing.  Faculty, librarians, staff, and students from all of SUNY are invited to join the conversation, learn about open access, have your questions answered, and share the good work that happens on our campuses.  A brief description of each session, as well as registration information can be found on the SUNY Open Access Website
