Outreach To Campus Administrators On Open Access Initiatives, Ryne Leuzinger, Jacqui Grallo

The California Open Educational Resources Council: From Curation To Adoption, Katherine D. Harris, Diego Bonilla

Open Access And The Logic Of Collective Action, John Wenzler
Open Access And The Logic Of Collective Action, John Wenzler
SJSU Open Access Conference
In the digital age, academic libraries confront the dilemma of collective action.

On an integrated electronic network, all of these tasks become shared endeavors. One copy of a journal article housed on an Internet server provides faster and more convenient access to the scholarly community than 1,000 printed copies scattered across the country. Thus, the work of maintaining the article and making it discoverable can be done by one organization for the entire community instead of …
