The Role of Libraries and Open Access Publishing in Advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (EMEA)
The United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a universal call to action to end poverty, protect the planet, and ensure prosperity for all, require global collaboration, knowledge sharing, and equitable access to information. Open Access, which provides unrestricted access to scholarly research and knowledge, has emerged as a powerful tool in advancing these goals. Within the scholarly community, stakeholders such as publishers, researchers, authors, libraries, and institutions collectively play a major role in promoting a sustainable and equitable future.
In this context, Knowledge Unlatched, a pioneer in Diamond Open Access publishing for a decade, is taking an active stance in embracing the SDGs in 2023. It has strategically integrated these goals into the curation of its well-known legacy collection of multi-disciplinary scholarly books, KU Select, as well as several other noteworthy collections.
This webinar serves as a testament to the synergy between Open Access and the SDGs, with an emphasis on their transformative potential. The main goal is to elucidate the imperatives guiding publishers and libraries toward supporting Open Access content aligned with the SDGs, both in the present and into the future.
Panelists:
Mirela Roncevic, Director of Library Relations, Knowledge Unlatched
James Watson, Open Access Lead, Taylor & Francis
Davide Fiore, Head of Sales, EMEA, Knowledge Unlatched & Oable
