Sign up to our ‘Making your research open access’ webinar – 23 November

Do you know your green from your gold? What on earth are transformational deals, and how can they help you? My paper acknowledges UKRI funding, do I need to do anything special? What does an author accepted manuscript look like? Can you get help to access funding to pay the APC? What is an APC? What is Creative Commons?

If you find yourself asking any (or all!) of these questions, why not come along to our webinar where we will do our best to demystify open access? It will take place on Wednesday 23rd November at 1pm via Zoom.

We will cover the benefits of open access, what you need to do to ensure your publications are made open, and the difference between gold and green open access. We’ll also explain the new publisher (or ‘transformational’) deals and how you can take advantage of them. We’ll also cover UKRI’s new policy and what you need to do to ensure you meet their new open access policy requirements.

There will be a Q&A section at the end of the session, and we welcome your questions.

The session will be delivered by two members of the Library’s research support team: Emma Turner, one of our Research Support Librarians will be presenting, and Sharon Hinton, Senior Information Advisor for Open Access will be monitoring the chat. The team works to ensure that your publications reach the widest possible audience – regardless of who they are, and where they are. We also do our best to ensure your papers meet funder conditions, as well as REF requirements.
