Hiring Indigenous Labour In Libraries: A Potential Framework?, Jennifer Soutter

Leddy Library Presentations

Leddy Library Presentations

Canada’s new Open Access policy requires government-funded researchers — and encourages all Canadian researchers — to make their work publicly accessible by either publishing in Open Access journals or archiving it in repositories.
