Comparing records of two ILS vendors KBs has shown a disparity in how they manage metadata.

Exploring ways to improve access by including call numbers and subject headings and discovering the larger problem.

Hilton M. Briggs Library Faculty Publications

According to the Open Access Advocacy organization, SPARC, Open Access (OA) is defined as "the free, immediate, online availability of research articles coupled with the rights to use these articles fully in the digital environment. Open Access ensures that anyone can access and use these results—to turn ideas into industries and breakthroughs into better lives." (https://sparcopen.org/open-access/)
