Description

We’re hearing about open access resources more frequently, but what are they exactly?

In this webinar we’ll discuss the copyright status of open access works, how to interpret the Creative Commons licenses we often see associated with them, how to find open access works, and how to advise library patrons on using or even creating them.

Who Should Attend

Individuals who work in reference, instruction, outreach, and programming or anyone with an interest in the topic.
