now open for the next OASPA open scholarship webinar which will be
held on *Thursday,
April 2nd *at 3.00 pm GMT.

The 21st Century has seen fundamental changes to the way we share, access,
disseminate and discover knowledge. What is scholarly communication and
publishing in the 21st Century and what should our priorities for, and
values of, scholarship be now?

Governments around the world are taking an increasing interest in open
access and open science because they see direct benefits for society. In
the US, open access is now actively under consideration by the White House.
We are delighted, therefore, to have secured three US-based experts to
explore publishing’s role in service to 21st century scholarship.

*Heather Joseph *(Executive Director of SPARC), *Kathleen Fitzpatrick
*(Director
of Digital Humanities and Professor of English at Michigan State
University) and *John Wilbanks *(Chief Commons Officer at Sage Bionetworks)
will each provide their own perspective and then we will open up the
webinar to questions from the audience.
