Making Your Work Open Access
The academic community has recently seen a sweep of support for open access, particularly from funding agencies. In Canada, the Tri-Agencies (CIHR, NSERC, SSHRC) and the Fonds de recherche du Québec (FRQ) have released open access policies for publications arising from grant-funded research. This presentation will review how grant-holders can make their work open access and the on-campus supports assist researchers in this endeavour.
