[IITGN Library Talk] 'Advancing our scholarly publishing system that is open, sustainable and equitable' by Colleen Campbell (Max Planck Digital Library) on 25th October, 2021 at 5.30pm
by TS Kumbar 07 Nov '21

07 Nov '21

Dear All, We are happy to announce an Invited talk by Ms *Colleen Campbell,* *Max Planck Digital Library (MPDL) <https://www.mpdl.mpg.de/en/>*as a part of our celebrations to observe Open Access Week 2021 at IIT Gandhinagar. Open Access Week, being a global event and entering its 10th year, is an opportunity for the academic and research community to learn more about the potential benefits of Open Access, to share what they have learned with colleagues, and to help inspire wider participation in making Open Access a new norm in scholarship and research. The theme for International Open Access Week <http://www.openaccessweek.org/> 2021, to be held from October 25-31, 2021, is *“It Matters How We Open Knowledge: Building Structural Equity.”* To mark this occasion, the Library at IITGN has organized a virtual talk. The details of the same are as mentioned: *Title: Advancing our scholarly publishing system that is open, sustainable, and equitable* *Speaker: Colleen Campbell, Partner Development in the Open Access 2020 Initiative, Max Planck Society, Max Planck Digital Library, Germany* *Date and Time: Monday, 25th October, 2021, 5.30 - 6.30 p.m.* *The link for joining the talk:* https://iitgn-ac-in.zoom.us/j/92809401850?pwd=a0xJQndYTFlUR1pkTjdWOFBYWTRmZ… Meeting ID: 928 0940 1850 Passcode: 766857 *The focus of the talk:* It has been nearly 20 years since the first Berlin Open Access Conference produced the Berlin Declaration on Open Access to Knowledge in the Sciences and Humanities, a foundational vision statement for open access which has garnered consensus of the global research community. How has the landscape in scholarly publishing changed since then? What stage of the open access transition have we reached, and where do we go from here? The research community was the initiator of the open access movement, but over the years open access has often been interpreted as a “top down” policy decision of research funders; the time has come for the research community to reclaim its ownership and advance strategies based on practical idealism to create a scholarly publishing system that is open, sustainable and equitable. *Brief profile of the speaker:* *Colleen Campbell* leads external engagement in the OA transition at the *Max Planck Digital Library (MPDL), <https://www.mpdl.mpg.de/en/> *focusing on activities to empower librarians and other stakeholders with strategic insights and practical skills as they work to enable an open, sustainable and equitable scholarly publishing environment. In her role at MPDL she coordinates the *Open Access 2020 * <https://oa2020.org/>Initiative, an international effort that aims to transition today’s scholarly journals to open access publishing models; the *ESAC Initiative* <https://esac-initiative.org/>, a global community of practice of research libraries and consortia promoting efficiencies and standards around the negotiation and implementation of transformative and open access publishing agreements; and she advises on strategic engagement in Germany’s *DEAL Operations* <https://deal-operations.de/en/>. She currently serves on the Managing Board of EIFL (Electronic Information for Libraries), the LIBER Open Access Working Group, and the advisory boards of a number of other scholarly communication initiatives and organizations. Previously European Director for Strategic Partnerships at JSTOR and the digital preservation service Portico, she has over 20 years’ experience forging partnerships across all areas of the academic information sector in the service of scholarship.

Libraries are the natural place to curate content
by Subbiah Arunachalam 06 Nov '21

“The focus on learning materials should move from the bookstore to the library,” Baraniuk says. “Libraries are the natural place to curate content developed not only at their school, but through collaboration with the entire academic community, across the country and the world. That is going to be the future.” - Richard Baraniuk of Rice University.
