REMINDER: Open forum on draft Open Access policy, 10/19

[Mark Mastrean]

Faculty and Staff Colleagues,

Please join us for a campus Zoom forum to discuss a proposed *Open Access
(OA) policy* to be voted on in the coming months by Faculty Senate.

The forum is scheduled for Monday, October 19 from 12 noon to 1 p.m., with
the following open Zoom link:

Joshua Beatty will host the event, with colleagues from the Faculty Senate
OA policy committee on hand to lend their expertise.

To prepare, you may wish to read a draft of the policy, available online at
:

Perhaps now more than ever before, Open Access is needed to ensure our
students get the best possible education and are not limited by the
selection of scholarly resources our campus is able to provide. We
encourage all to attend this timely, student-focused event.

Best regards,

Joshua Beatty
