CUH Library Introduces a Value Added Course on "Open Access Publishing" for PG II Sem students
Dear Sir/ Madam, Season's greetings! We are happy to inform you that we recently introduced a Value Added Course on *"Open Access Publishing"* for the PG II Sem. students of Central University of Haryana. This initiative is one of our key initiatives in the domain of open access and is the result of our strong commitment towards promoting open access within our own community. Indeed, we find great possibilities to introduce different meaningful OA initiatives in the University landscape and achieve the possible impact of OA on the academic/ research community. We observe that many of the PG students are unfamiliar with OA publishing and its allied dimensions. Especially, researchers really need hand-holding as they need to be familiar with the publishing avenues in the OA domain. It reminds me of Peter Suber's words <https://openinterview.org/2019/06/29/peter-suber-the-largest-obstacles-to-open-access-are-unfamiliarity-and-misunderstanding-of-open-access-itself/>, "The largest obstacles to open access are unfamiliarity and misunderstanding of open access itself". In this context, it's our small effort to start with a small group of PG students! We are thankful to our authorities and academic fraternity for their support and encouragement for doing our best to promote open access in the Campus.
