Are you interested in learning more about the Open Access (OA) movement?  Are you mystified by the OA lingo ("green OA" vs. "gold OA," "APCs," "funder mandates," etc.)?  Do you wonder about the pros and cons of making your dissertation available via open access?

On October 22, 2013, the UC San Diego Library is hosting a panel discussion called "Demystifying Open Access" which will be held in the Seuss Room at Geisel Library.

The speakers will include:

• Dr. Eric Bakovic, Professor and Director of Graduate Studies, Linguistics Department
• Dr. Kim Barrett, Dean of Graduate Studies and Professor of Medicine
• Dr. Maryann Martone, Co-Director of the National Center for Microscopy and Imagine Research, and Professor in Residence in the Department of Neurosciences
• Dr. Stefan Tanaka, Professor of Communication and Director of the Center for the Humanities

Please join us for this illuminating discussion by some of the campus's most knowledgeable people in this area.  Pizza and water will be served.
