What’s Next in the Move Towards “Open”?

This talk will explore the latest developments and emerging trends in the movement to make “open” the default in research and education. We’ll discuss the state of play of Open Access journals and archives, dig into details of Open Research Data, and touch on the growing popularity of Open Educational Resources on college and university campuses. And, of course, we’ll take a look at how the current political climate may affect the prospects for continued progress in each of these areas.
