[Eril-l] September 13 webinar announcement: Scholarly communication’s response to the climate crisis and the role of open science

[Electronic Resources in Libraries discussion list]

OASPA is pleased to announce our next timely webinar (in just two weeks)
which will focus on the role that different actors in scholarly
communication can play to address climate change - one of the world's most
pressing challenges. While climate change is a complex issue there are very
real and impactful actions that researchers, librarians and publishers can
take to help generate solutions to climate change though open access.

The webinar will be chaired by *Monica Granados *(Creative Commons). We
welcome our panelists: *Vincent Lariviere* (l’Université de Montréal) who
will present his findings Contrasting the open access dissemination of
COVID-19 and SDG research <https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.05.18.541286> and *Kris
Karnauskas* (University of Colorado Boulder) who will speak from the
perspective of a researcher and why the research he works on needs to be
open. A third panelist is in the process of being confirmed and will
conclude the talks. Full information on our blog
<https://oaspa.org/webinar-scholarly-communications-response-to-the-climate-crisis-and-the-role-of-open-science/>
.

This webinar is an opportunity for registrants to reflect on what they
could do to advance open access to climate research and plan some actions
(e.g. opening up fundamental papers, publish new research openly, raise
awareness among researchers, engage library community, amongst others).
