Open Access publishing with Leila Moore

In this episode, Casy and Rob talk to Leila Moore, the Director of Open Access policy at Wiley. Leila covers the history, principles and processes relating to open access as well as describing the mechanisms by which research is made freely available for people who want to access it. Leila explains how open access publishing can increase accessibility and ensure research reaches a more diverse readership meaning that people who previously could not access research findings now can. Leila also explains APCs (article processing charges) and transformational agreements."Open access increases opportunities for collaboration reduces duplication, speeds up groundbreaking discoveries and enables more people than ever before to access this research. Whether that's a patient looking for information on illness, a teacher looking for new ways to work with students or a researcher who discovers the next great opportunity for collaboration."The opinions expressed in this podcast reflect the views of the author(s) and do not necessarily represent the opinions or official positions of the SSA.The SSA does not endorse or guarantee the accuracy of the information in external sources or links and accepts no responsibility or liability for any consequences arising from the use of such information.
