Why you should attend This practical one-day seminar is designed to facilitate sharing of information and is aimed at those working with OA on a day-to-day basis in institutions. There will be plenty of time to share experiences and to listen to case studies from a variety of institutions and publishers. The event is designed to complement the OA Good Practice projects and will offer valuable feedback for Jisc and EIRWIG as they move forward with their offsetting negotiations.
