Advocating for Open: Putting Ethics into Practice

 

Session Description:
There is a vital role for libraries to lead the way in open, community-run dissemination and preservation of the scholarly record and educational materials. This panel will introduce advocacy practices to make openness a priority at your institution, through educational resources, ongoing research, and archived research. Panelists will discuss how they practice openness as a core part of their work and present concrete ideas about how to integrate openness into practice as both LIS professionals and service providers. Attendees will leave with practical strategies and renewed confidence as openness advocates at their institutions and in the LIS field.
