Open publishing is something that concerns us all. That is why having basic knowledge as teachers and researchers is essential. In this talk we will try to expand general knowledge about something that is unknown to many. But what exactly is open publishing?

According to the Berlin Declaration, for a contribution to be considered open access, “The author(s) and right holder(s) of such contributions must grant to all users a free, irrevocable, worldwide right of access to, and a license to copy, use, distribute, transmit and publicly display the work, and to make and distribute derivative works […]” In short, we could say that it is immediate access to all kinds of material without any restriction.

What are its advantages? It is an interesting outlet for the publication of research work and teaching materials. In this talk we will try to answer questions such as:

  • Why are research funding bodies increasingly requesting open publishing?
  • What impact does open publishing have on teaching materials?
  • Why might open publishing be of interest to students?

If you are interested in expanding your knowledge in this area, come on March 9 from 10:30 to 11:00, in Departmental I, Seminar 044 on the Fuenlabrada campus. We look forward to seeing you!
