ARA Podcast - Denise Nicholson: Open Access, APCs, and Predatory Publishing Practices
--:--
Open Access is an international movement that aims to “make the products of research freely accessible to all.” Here in the global South, the movement is becoming increasingly influential across many universities, with Wits adopting Open Access as official policy in June 2018.
In this ARA podcast, Denise Nicholson, the Scholarly Communications Librarian at the University of the Witwatersrand in Johannesburg. gives a highly informative presentation on Open Access, APCs, and Predatory Publishing Practices. Her presentation is strongly user-orientated and provides a wealth of practical information on how young scholars should approach academic publishing in the growing open access environment.
Since it is a presentation, the podcast is best accompanied by the PowerPoint slide show that Denise has prepared. It can be accessed from her LibGuides site: https://libguides.wits.ac.za/ld.php?content_id=47170496
