SUMMARY:Who Owns Our Knowledge? A Practical Guide to Open Access at Queen’s
DESCRIPTION:Join us during Open Access Week 2025 (October 20–26) for a 
 workshop exploring this year’s theme: Who Owns Our Knowledge?. In a time 
 of rapid change and disruption\, this theme invites communities\, 
 scholars\, and institutions to critically examine how knowledge is 
 created\, controlled\, and shared—and to think about how we can reassert 
 collective agency over scholarly outputs. \n\nThis session will: 
 \n\n\n	\n	Highlight the key principles of Open Access (OA)—the movement 
 to make scholarly research and outputs freely available\, enabling anyone 
 to read\, download\, distribute\, and reuse scholarly outputs without 
 barriers\, aligned with the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI) 
 definition. \n	\n\n\n\n	\n	Explore themes related to “Who Owns Our 
 Knowledge?” including advancing community over commercialization in 
 academic publishing and moving away from proprietary platforms and 
 commercial oligopoly publishers toward community-based\, library-supported 
 publishing infrastructures. \n	\n\n\n\n	\n	Describe the services available 
 at Queen’s University to support OA publishing\, including our 
 read-and-publish agreements\, library-supported diamond OA journal and 
 monograph platforms\, and our institutional repository QSpace. \n	 
 \n	\n\n\nWhether you are new to OA or looking to deepen your 
 understanding\, this workshop blends big-picture themes with practical 
 advice tailored for Queen’s researchers. Join us to help build a just and 
 open scholarly future. \n\nPresenter: Mark Swartz\, Scholarly Publishing 
 Librarian\n\nLocation: Stauffer Library (Lower-level room 014) \n\nPart of 
 the Workshop Series: Harvesting Knowledge: Publishing\, Copyright\, and 
 Data Literacy
