Librarians Working Inside Out: An Open Access Week Interview; Information Today, Inc., 10/25/16

Dave Shumaker, Information Today, Inc.; Librarians Working Inside Out: An Open Access Week Interview:

"Heather Joseph is the executive director of SPARC (the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition). SPARC is sponsoring this week’s ninth annual observation of Open Access Week (Oct. 24–30), a worldwide event held to celebrate open access and advocate for further progress toward its goals.
I visited with Joseph at SPARC’s Washington, D.C., office for a wide-ranging conversation about past progress, the state of open access today, the road ahead, and how open access could change the role of academic librarians."
