The academic publishing landscape is changing rapidly, and open access is becoming increasingly more relevant across all library types and sizes. Can your library incorporate this wealth of content into your eResource management strategy? And how can it be leveraged to save money and satisfy faculty and users’ research needs?  

In this hourlong webinar, three academic library professionals—Betsy Garloch of Gannon University, Cathy Austin of Mississippi State University, and Linda Barr of Austin Community College—weigh in on this important and timely topic. 

Join us as we explore further—and reveal three things that every librarian should know about OA. 

You’ll learn: 

  • Where most OA content is published and how to aggregate it in a single location. 

  • How CloudSource OA, the new content discovery platform from SirsiDynix, delivers access to gold and diamond journals as well as peer-reviewed content from hybrid journals. 

  • Why Gannon University, Mississippi State University, and Austin Community College decided to adopt CloudSource OA—and what it means for their respective communities.
