Do the humanities and social sciences need (more) advocacy?
Why is advocacy crucial for forging open scholarly communication?
What can you do for more openness in the humanities and social sciences?
OPERAS Advocacy Special Interest Group opens up Open Chat Series. With experts in advocacy and communications, researchers, publishers and other members of the social sciences and humanities community we will:
- discuss current trends in open scholarly communication,
- look for innovative solutions and tools for publishers, researchers and scholarly institutions,
- share best practices in open digital scholarly publications.
On 29 March 2023 from 11:30-12:30 CEST we will continue our Open Chat Series “How-to-Advocacy” and start a chat with Lucy Barnes from the Open Access Books Network. Together with our guest speaker and the audience, we will discuss the advocacy goals and challenges for the social sciences and humanities community – and how to advocate for innovative Open Access book publishing.
