Open Access Week 2024 @ UoA - Navigating Open Access in a commercial publishing model

Open Access publishing ensures maximum exposure and recognition for your work. Open publications are viewed, downloaded, and cited at higher rates than closed publications. With funders and institutions seeking to make research more open and accessible to the public the established publishers have created a commercial OA model through Article Processing Charges (APCs) and Read & Publish deals.   
    
This one-hour online session will discuss the balancing of OA opportunities with budgetary constraints. There are free ways to make your work open, regardless of where you publish, and avoid paying steep publication fees to get the benefits of OA. This talk will address the balance between publishing within a commercial model and retaining an Open Access ethos.   
    
This session consists of a presentation with Q&A at the end.
