Internet Archaeology is a hybrid Open Access journal. But in a bid to demonstrate our intent, as of January 2013 all content in issues 1-21 has been made Open Access.

Content in later issues are a mix of OA and subscription, but increasing numbers are Open Access because their authors (or more usually their funding/sponsoring body) have been able to fund production costs (it is journal policy to enable OA on all content when article development costs are met). Our longer term aim is…

Today marks the start of Open Access Week 2013. While browsing the internet for interesting articles on the subject of Open Access, I came across one on the Guardian website titled "Open Access: Six myths to put to rest" by Peter Suber. It's worth a read as it helps to clear a lot of misconceptions about Open…

My article  “Open Access: Towards Fairer Access to Research” is up on the Impact of Social Sciences blog.

There I argue that practical and sustainable ways of increasing access to scholarly materials will require a more thorough transformation of the…

Our theme for 2013 is Promoting OA Scholarship.

We have two events aimed at library staff education and participation. The third event (outside of OA week dates) is aimed at helping faculty and students understand the facts and let go of the myths about OA student (including undergraduate) scholarship.

My goal this year is to raise awareness about Open Access on campus. Library staff and student volunteers from McMaster's Free Culture Club will be manning an information desk in the lobby of the largest library on campus, Mills Memorial Library. We will be distributing Right to Research handouts, OA buttons and Hallowe'en treats! We will also be promoting two drop-in sessions. The Schedule of Events may be accessed from the article on the University Library's Blog site …

Open Access Week arrives again this October, and is a time to celebrate all that has been achieved in the previous twelve months.

As our contribution to this year’s OA Week, we are offering our third annual international award to recognise the impact that individuals can make. The huge interest in and success of the first two awards makes it clear that such international recognition…

For Open Access Week, I've written an essay on Planeta.com and requested comments on my blog.

If there are any takeaways from previous efforts in opening and sharing access to information is that what is most effective is the most widely understood. Wonky weasel words don’t cut it. Meaningful interaction with…
