ACS Publications Webinar on November 11

Institutional open access agreements have played a significant role in expanding the amount of research that is freely and immediately available to the general public. As participation has grown, however, so too have discussions about the equitability of participation in these agreements and exploration of alternative models.

This session will look at the factors that led to the rise of institutional OA agreements, the current outlook for the immediate future, and what the long-term picture might be for largescale open access initiatives.
