Open access funders and enablers outside the library: fresh perspectives and lesser-heard voices

Supporting open access (OA), and the transition to OA, needs money within the system of scholarly publishing to be redirected at a grand scale. We often talk and think about universities, institutions and libraries as playing a pivotal role. However, research funders and supporters of various types can make a substantial difference. In this session, we hear directly from public and private organisations about their role in enabling, embracing and engaging with OA. Each speaker brings their views on practising and supporting OA research; the challenges they face when it comes to OA; and the questions they pose along with solutions they propose, to bolster innovation and help society at large through open scholarship. Both national research agendas and corporate policy can sometimes conflict with what is good for global research on an international scale. Meanwhile, scholarly publishing appears in an endless hybrid state of transitioning to full OA. Join us to explore these challenging themes, and views around funding the transition to OA, from the perspective of corporate and government organisations. Our panel consists of: Prof Denise Pires de Carvalho – President of CAPES, Brasil. Dr Valérie Phillipon – Global Head of Scientific Communications, Medical Information & Medical Learning, UCB Pharma. Jeroen Sondervan – Programme Leader Open Scholarly Communication, Open Science NL, Dutch Research Council (NWO). Dr Carina Kemp – Global Academic Research Lead, Global Education,Amazon Web Services (AWS). Moderating this discussion for OASPA is someone actively navigating the OA-transition from within the publishing world: Sara Rouhi, Director of Open Science and Publishing Innovation at AIP Publishing, the publishing arm of the American Institute of Physics.
