OASPA’s annual conference is the only event that brings together the whole
of the open access community, accelerating connection, discovery and new
thinking. Join us at OASPA2025, September 22-24 at the Irish College
Leuven, Belgium.


This year, we tackle the big question: What will it take to reach 100% open
access?

We are excited to announce additional speakers, sessions and poster
lightning talks as we move to finalise our programme
