Economics of Open Access

About This Session

Will OA be cheaper? Despite all its other advantages, can we look forward to saving some money as well? Recent economic modelling studies say yes. Alma will report on these studies and explain what they show, discussing the implications for universities and governments – and not least, for libraries, which will help drive the changes and may find themselves doing different things as a result.
