Subject: UC Libraries Release "Pathways to Open Access" Toolkit
All,
We would like to share a toolkit prepared by the University of
California Libraries that will be used to help guide our
decision-making in redirecting library funds to support open access
(OA).
In order to make informed and data-driven decisions about which
endeavors to pursue at scale, the UC Libraries analyzed the various
approaches to or models for achieving open access, and the actionable
strategies that exist to implement each approach.
This analysis, compiled in the Pathways to OA documents linked below,
was endorsed by the UC Council of University Librarians (CoUL) on 27
February 2018. Pathways to OA will now assist campus libraries and the
California Digital Library with individual and, where appropriate,
collective decision-making about which OA strategies, possible next
steps, or experiments to pursue in order to achieve large-scale
transition to OA.
We also hope that other institutions considering ways to repurpose
subscription spends may find the Pathways toolkit beneficial for their
own decision-making.
