[Irtalk] UNESCO launches Open Access Curricula for Researchers and Librarians | United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization

[Hilton Gibson]

Within the overall framework of UNESCO Strategy on Open Access to
scientific information and research and to take forward UNESCO’s leadership
role in diffusing knowledge amongst its Member States, UNESCO has developed
a set of manuals to facilitate capacity building of library and information
professionals and researchers.

The development of the modules has been undertaken very carefully and the
development process covered diverse opinion in the subject area, and in
consultation with more than 50 experts to include diversity and expertise
from the developing south.
