Further, we will cover a range of options for making your own scholarly work publicly accessible, and consider some reasons why you might want to. We’ll pay particular attention to CUNY’s own public access repository, CUNY Academic Works.

This workshop will clear up some common confusions about open access, highlight some sites where open access publications can be found, and demonstrate some tools for finding open access versions of articles.

You probably know that you can find open access (i.e., cost-free and publicly accessible) copies of many journal articles online. But do you know how to determine if a specific article is available open access?
