OA Master Class: Opening the Door to OA with Springer-Nature

As the availability of open access academic journal content increases each year, CloudSource OA aggregates these resources—and the global body of OA materials—into one intuitive discovery platform. But where does this content come from, and how do you and your users know it is quality, vetted research? Join us as we talk with Springer-Nature, a leader in the open research publishing movement, about their open access initiatives and efforts to provide timely, cutting-edge research to your faculty and students.

Together we will explore:

  • How much OA content is out there and why it can be challenging to find
  • How one publisher, Springer-Nature, is working to make peer-reviewed research available to everyone
  • How Springer Nature seeks to make open access publishing available to as many authors as possible
  • Ways to leverage CloudSource OA to ensure your users can access the global body of OA content
  • How to evaluate your collection to determine how much of what you already subscribe to is actually open

Register today. See how CloudSource OA can put quality OA and open educational resources (OER) into the hands of your students and faculty—with one click and no authentication required.
