[Irtalk] UNESCO Open Access Curricula online available

[Ina Smith]

Dear Colleagues

The following were previously only accessible in print, but has been made available as online courses for you to study online. Open Access and scholarly publishing are more and more becoming crucial and required skills. You can acquire the necessary skills through self-learning and through becoming involved in activities - locally, nationally, internationally.
