[IRTalk] Webinar invitation: Communication and knowledge sharing about libraries’ support for author fee-free open access

[bernie.folan at oaspa.org]

You are invited to our next webinar exploring library perspectives on
supporting non-author-fee models for open access (OA).

Many questions from our recent Wayfinders #7 webinar about libraries as
collective actors
<https://www.oaspa.org/events/collective-actors-libraries-supporting-open-access-without-author-charges-wayfinders-7/>
remained
unanswered. OASPA is therefore pleased to announce this follow-on webinar,
which will continue to unpack further library perspectives on supporting
non-author-fee models for open access (OA).

The conversation will be geared towards practical help for libraries and
publishing organisations, such as:

   - How do libraries advocate for OA and handle messaging *within *their
   institutions?
   - What do libraries *most *need to know about OA offerings – those that
   seek to transition to no-fee models, or that already do not charge
   author-facing fees?
   - What advice and best practice inputs can be shared about
   communications from/with OA publishers?

The session will be chaired by Malavika Legge of OASPA along with speakers:
Robin Sinn, Sarah Thompson and Jack Hyland. Please join us live for this
conversation and share your thoughts.

Please share with all those you think may be interested. *Registration*
