Research Essentials: Get Read - Open Access for your research Online

You hit a paywall to access a journal article; the link to a report results in a 404; a researcher trying to access YOUR research hits a paywall and cannot read (or cite!) your paper.

Access to research is a problem, for practitioners, policymakers, and researchers at institutions with restricted budgets for subscription services. How can you ensure your research still gets read? 

This session will explore:

  • The benefits of open access publishing
  • Three options for OA publishing for ACU researchers
  • ACU’s Read and Publish Agreements (without paying a fee)
  • Using ACU’s institutional repository, Research Bank
  • Publishing using a CC licence
  • Understanding article versions you can legitimately share
  • Journal publishers’ policies on OA.

The session will be conducted on Microsoft Teams. Registered participants will be provided with the meeting link, and after the session, a recording.
