O Acesso Aberto tem como principal objetivo democratizar o acesso ao conhecimento. E quando o assunto é Ciência, isso significa disponibilizar de forma livre e gratuita as pesquisas desenvolvidas em institutos de pesquisa e instituições de ensino.

Para conversar mais sobre o Acesso Aberto e outros temas relacionados, o SIBi UFSCar convida toda comunidade para o evento em comemoração a Semana do Acesso Aberto, que será realizado no dia 23 de outubro de 2025, quinta-feira, às 14 horas no Auditório 3 da BCo. Haverá emissão de certificado.

As convidadas Elza Luli Miyasaka (Professora do Departamento de Engenharia Civil da UFSCar e Editora Responsável do periódico Engenharia Urbana em Debate), Janaína Cesar (Supervisora de Propriedade Intelectual na Agência de Inovação da UFSCar) e Marisa Cubas Lozano (Chefe do Departamento de Produção Científica/SIBi-UFSCar) falam sobre a importância do depósito de dados de pesquisa em repositórios institucionais e os dilemas sobre propriedade intelectual e a publicação de artigos baseados em trabalhos acadêmicos.

Por segundo año consecutivo invitamos a la comunidad académica a participar de un espacio de diálogo y reflexión en torno al acceso abierto, el conocimiento abierto y la ciencia abierta.
En esta nueva edición, la propuesta se enmarca en el lema de la Semana Internacional del Acceso Abierto ¿Quién posee nuestro conocimiento?, pregunta que nos convoca a pensar críticamente sobre las prácticas de producción y circulación del saber. Además, busca visibilizar diferentes desarrollos e innovaciones que están llevando adelante en las universidades nacionales para fortalecer la soberanía científica y tecnológica.

El evento organizado por la Secretaría de Ciencia y Técnica de la Universidad Nacional de La Plata y la Biblioteca Pública junto con Wikipedistas UNLP tendrá una modalidad híbrida y será transmitido por el canal oficial de YouTube de la Biblioteca Pública @BibPublicaUNLP.

En el marco de la Semana Internacional del Acceso Abierto 2025, la Biblioteca de la Universidad de Lima invita a la comunidad a dialogar sobre cómo el acceso abierto y la gestión responsable de datos académicos fortalecen la creación de conocimiento compartido. Esta actividad destacará la importancia de la reutilización y el intercambio de información como pilares para impulsar un aprendizaje inclusivo, equitativo y accesible a todos.

Title: Ask Us Anything: Open Access
Date: October 23, 2025
Time: 3:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Location: Ibict YouTube Channel
Speakers: André Appel, Fhillipe Campos, Priscila Sena, Walter Couto
Moderator: Marcel Garcia de Souza

Summary: During this 2025 International Open Access Week, the Brazilian Institute of Science and Technology Information (Ibict) is hosting a question-and-answer session on Open Access, using the Ask Me Anything (AMA) format.

The International Open Access Week has been celebrated since 2008, always during the last full week of October each year. For more information, visit https://www.openaccessweek.org/.

Ibict, a leading institution in the discussion and creation of infrastructures to support Open Access, is promoting this event with the goal of creating an open space for discussion on various topics related to Open Access.

The session will have as panelistas a group of researchers from Ibict. Their research topics of interest involve scientific journals, digital repositories, copyright, Open Science, scholarly communication, and related fields.

It can be exciting to get an article accepted – and you might be tempted to rush through signing the publication agreement or author contract without reading all the fine print. However: signing a contract without understanding it can mean giving away your intellectual property – and can have long-term negative consequences. In this session, you'll learn how to read author agreements, and how to negotiate them, so that you’re not giving away your work for free!

Join Sonoma State researchers for an Open Access Week discussion on October 23, 12-1:30 PM, in 2900 Stevenson and online via Zoom, to be moderated by Dr. Eileen A, Joy, punctum books. Panelists will speak on their own OA scholarship activities, insights on the direction of research and dissemination globally and especially within the United States, and how generative artificial intelligence might affect the system.

“Who Owns Our Knowledge?” is the theme for this year’s International Open Access (OA) Week (October 20-26). It asks a pointed question about the present moment and how, in a time of disruption, scholarly and research communities can reassert control over the knowledge they produce. It also challenges us to reflect on not only who has access to education and research but on how knowledge is created and shared, where it has come from, and whose voices are recognized and valued as knowledge producers.

Session 1: Understanding Creative Commons Licenses.

Session 2: How to Publish Your Thesis in BUScholar (Self-Archiving Demo).

Highlights: Launch of the BU Journal, Self-Archiving Platform, and Research Data Management Portal. Award of prizes to quiz winners and certificates to participants. Chief Guest: Chairperson, University Council.

Dr. Arne Upmeier, Director of KIT-Library, interviews Prof. Oliver Kraft. VP of KIT, about the Open Access movement and future perspectives of Open Access at KIT.

In diesem Webinar werden die Grundlagen von Open Science kompakt dargestellt und die Anforderungen des 8. Energieforschungsprogramms (EFP) der Bundesregierung erläutert. Zusätzlich wird gezeigt, wie Open-Science-Instrumente die Kooperation und Anschlussfähigkeit in Verbundprojekten fördern. Wir freuen uns auf Ihr Interesse und Ihre Fragen zu Open Science in der Energieforschung.

Die Reihe „Open Access verstehen“ beginnt mit einer Veranstaltung im Rahmen der Open Access Week 2025. Unter dem Titel „Open Access publizieren – Wohin geht die Reise?” beleuchten wir Grundlagen, Status quo und Perspektiven von Open Access. Im Fokus stehen aktuelle Entwicklungen und Herausforderungen im wissenschaftlichen Publikationswesen. Die Veranstaltung richtet sich in erster Linie an Wissenschaftler*innen, die sich über die genannten Themen informieren und austauschen wollen.

International Open Access Week 2025 runs from October 20 to 26, challenges us to ask who controls knowledge production, access, and dissemination. This webinar, organized by The Digital Librarian in collaboration with LIBSENSE Nigeria and Upskill & Connect Village seeks to spark conversation around the roles of AI, licensing, data ownership, and institutional practices in knowledge governance. We hope to create a platform for academics, librarians, and researchers to reflect, engage, and plan toward reclaiming community control over research outputs and infrastructure.

OPERAS France, the French national node of the European research infrastructure OPERAS, works to make research in the humanities and social sciences (HSS) openly accessible and truly shared. In line with this year’s theme, “Who owns our knowledge?”, we explore how communities take ownership of knowledge through collaboration and translation.
Translation groups within OPERAS France are more than linguistic bridges — they embody a collective appropriation of open science resources, ensuring that language never becomes a barrier to participation. By engaging researchers, librarians, and editors in the co-creation and adaptation of materials, these initiatives turn access into active ownership.
Through these practices, we demonstrate how the open and multilingual dimension of OPERAS empowers communities to shape, share, and sustain knowledge together.

In diesem Vortrag am Freitag, den 24. Oktober 2025, um 12:00 Uhr beleuchtet Prof. Dr. Stefan Schmunk von der Hochschule Darmstadt unter dem Motto „Open Data, Open History?“ die Frage, welche Bedeutung historischen Forschungsdaten im digitalen Zeitalter zukommt und stellt die Nationale Forschungsdaten-Infrastruktur NFDI4Memory vor.

Die Coffee Lecture findet im Rahmen der International Open Access Week 2025 statt und wird von der Staats- und Universitätsbibliothek Bremen und dem Bibliotheks- und Informationssystem der Universität Oldenburg organisiert.

Die Veranstaltung findet online über Zoom statt. Eine Registrierung ist nicht notwendig.

The 2025 International Open Access Week, themed - 'Who Owns Our Knowledge?', invites reflection on the tension between knowledge as a shared public good and as a commodity controlled by publishers and commercial platforms. For LIBSENSE Early Career Researchers, this question underscores critical issues of equity, integrity, and sustainability in scholarly communication. The roundtable brings together librarians and researchers to explore how Creative Commons (CC) licensing can empower knowledge creators to retain rights, enhance visibility, and promote responsible sharing. By bridging perspectives from both groups, the session seeks to deepen understanding of ownership, licensing, and access in the context of Open Access publishing.

The 90-minute roundtable will include short presentations, reflective discussions, and an open dialogue segment to unpack the theme and explore practical pathways for adopting CC licensing in research practice. Participants will learn about different types of CC licenses, the roles of authors, publishers, and institutions in knowledge ownership, and how librarians can support responsible licensing choices. Expected outcomes include increased awareness of CC licensing, shared insights on the challenges and opportunities of Open Access, and practical recommendations for embedding CC licensing in institutional strategies. The event targets academic librarians, researchers, repository managers, and Open Access advocates committed to advancing equitable and sustainable scholarly communication.

The lecture focuses on the development of open science and open access in Ukraine in the context of global trends and open science policies. It will explore the concept of open science, the FAIR principles, and key directions for implementing open practices worldwide and in Ukraine. Special attention will be given to the National Repository of Academic Texts — the largest Ukrainian initiative in the field of open access that brings together scientific, educational, and research outputs. Participants will learn about the history, current state, and development prospects of the Repository, as well as its role in enhancing the visibility of Ukrainian science on the international level.
Additionally, the lecture will cover the open science tools available on the official NRAT web portal, including those for open peer review, dissemination of research results, and popularization of scientific achievements as key factors in boosting economic competitiveness and supporting social progress.

In the evolving landscape of academic research, the principles of Open Science are reshaping how knowledge is created, shared, and governed. This event invites researchers, administrators, and institutional stakeholders to explore a critical question: Who owns our knowledge?
Through a series of focused presentations and interactive activities, we will examine the institutional and practical dimensions of knowledge ownership in the context of Open Science.

Participants will gain insights into:

Open Science Policy.
Practical tools and templates for research data management.
Community-building efforts to support an open research culture.

Sie möchten Ihren Artikel oder Ihr Buch im Open Access veröffentlichen, aber haben noch viele Fragen zur Umsetzung und Finanzierung? Dann schauen Sie gerne bei unserer Info-Veranstaltung vorbei, in der wir die Fördermöglichkeiten für Open Access an der Universität Rostock erläutern.

Das Open-Access-Team der Universitätsbibliothek lädt alle Interessierten zu einem Infostand im zentralen Eingangsbereich der UB vor dem Infoterminal zwischen 13 und 15 Uhr ein. In ungezwungener Atmosphäre vermitteln Expert*innen des Teams grundlegendes Wissen über Open Access und geben Ratschläge für die Praxis. Open Access – was ist das eigentlich? Welche Möglichkeiten gibt es an der Universität Trier, open access zu publizieren und zu finanzieren?

Session 1: 8:30am-9:45am EST

Corpus creation from open access repositories and their analysis with semantic tools presented by Ms. Udita Agarwal, Ph.D. student, National Institute of Plant Genome Research (NIPGR) and Dr. Renu Kumari, Program Manager #semanticClimate and Ms. Shaik Zainab, Anurag University, Hyderabad. The session will provide an introduction to corpus creation and pygetpapers for literature review. Links to the recording will be available after the session.

They will be showing their complete READER-oriented toolkit. This takes OA material (both academic articles and more generally Open material such as the UN IPCC reports) and automatically turns it into semantic form (no AI contamination at this stage). There are several components, all Open, and managed by Renu, and largely automatic (i.e. their default use can scope a query in the time it takes to download material):

corpus builder
semantic encyclopedia
search
annotation
knowledge graphs
Jupyter notebooks for demonstration and learning

This is highly flexible (written in Python) but designed for use by those without technical knowledge (other than having Python on the machine).

Join Sarah Lamdan, Deputy Director of ALA's Office for Intellectual Freedom, for a discussion of her 2022 book, Data Cartels: The Companies that Control and Monopolize Our Information (Stanford University Press). Drawing from her expertise in law and library science, Lamdan explores how a handful of powerful corporations—often better known for legal and academic databases—have transformed public data into private commodities, which raises urgent questions about privacy, surveillance, and access to information in our digital society.

Open scholarship and open education can often feel mystifying—especially from the outside. But even for those working within these practices, common challenges and shared experiences are bound to emerge across institutions.
Approaches to countering the gatekeeping of knowledge manifest in various forms, including library-led initiatives and programming, teaching and learning centres' guidebooks, and collaborations, as well as student union endorsements of open education, open-access university press publishing, and open science working groups. These efforts—led by libraries and librarians, university presses and their dedicated staff, teaching and learning centres and their instructional designers, faculty groups, student unions, and more—might often be united by a common goal: to prioritize community over commercial interests in the pursuit of democratizing knowledge.
This Behind the Scenes hybrid event brings together practitioners from different institutions to share what excites them about a current project, the behind-the-scenes work that makes it possible, and a key challenge they face in their practice!

Adopting open data practices can improve collaboration, safeguard data, and help researchers get ahead of data sharing requirements from funders and publishers. Data sharing and transparency can benefit science and increase researcher impact. But what does it take to make data genuinely open? This presentation will provide strategies for meaningfully open data, offer choices in data sharing, describe some limitations of openness, and help researchers get a jump start preparing data for openness.

What would happen if Google Scholar were to vanish tomorrow? For many researchers, it has become the default gateway to academic literature, yet its dominance also exposes vulnerabilities in how knowledge is discovered and accessed. This presentation will discuss how the proliferation of open access journals, led by scholars and published out of universities from around the world, is challenging publishing models, reshaping access to knowledge, and redefining the global landscape of scholarly communication. It concludes with a call to strengthen and sustain scholar-led publishing infrastructures—so that access to knowledge is secured by the academic community itself, not left at the mercy of corporate platforms.

La Secretaría de Ciencia, Humanidades, Tecnología e Innovación (Secihti), en el marco de Open Access Week, invita al conversatorio virtual “Soberanía editorial e inteligencia artificial. Perspectivas desde Latinoamérica”, a realizarse el viernes 24 de octubre de 2025, a las 11:00 h (zona centro de México).

El objetivo del webinario es dialogar con especialistas de México y de América Latina sobre los impactos de la inteligencia artificial en la producción, circulación, preservación y usos comerciales del conocimiento, con énfasis en la soberanía editorial y la búsqueda de marcos de acción conjunta para la región.

Conocimiento abierto, extractivismo digital y soberanía editorial

En América Latina, la construcción de infraestructuras públicas y sistemas de información científica colaborativas, han jugado un papel estratégico para favorecer el acceso, visibilidad y preservación de la producción académica generada principalmente por las instituciones públicas, que son quienes sostienen el ecosistema regional de revistas bajo un modelo no comercial y controlado por la academia, el cual constituye un referente internacional alternativo frente al que se promueve desde la denominada ciencia de corriente principal, acoplado a las grandes editoriales internacionales que promueven un modelo comercial basado en pagos por publicar (APC).

Sin embargo, este modelo enfrenta hoy tensiones críticas derivadas de transformaciones globales en la circulación y formas de apropiación del conocimiento. Por un lado, con el lanzamiento del Plan S en 2018 se ha intensificado la concentración de la información científica en plataformas comerciales internacionales, reforzada por los acuerdos transformativos y el dominio de sistemas de indexación basados en métricas como el factor de impacto. Por otro lado, la rápida expansión de la inteligencia artificial generativa y de técnicas de minería de textos y datos (TDM) ha abierto un campo de disputa sobre la apropiación del conocimiento en acceso abierto.

Esto se debe a que gran parte de los modelos de inteligencia artificial (IA) se entrenan con corpus que incluyen artículos y datos financiados con fondos públicos, pero su explotación comercial carece de mecanismos de reciprocidad hacia autores, instituciones y comunidades académicas que generaron las investigaciones y contenidos usados por la IA (Creative Commons, 2023; UNESCO 2023).

De esta forma, podemos decir que, si bien se han logrado importantes avances regionales para reconocer el derecho humano a la ciencia, en la región persisten tendencias que encauzan la producción científica hacia los circuitos internacionales y que ahora enfrentan los riesgos de extractivismo digital por IA. Por lo anterior, este panel se propone abordar esta doble problemática: cómo fortalecer la soberanía editorial latinoamericana frente a dinámicas globales de desposesión y extractivismo digital, y qué políticas, regulaciones, esquemas tecnológicos y acuerdos regionales son necesarios para garantizar que la apertura del conocimiento no derive en usos comerciales, sino en un mayor aprovechamiento social, valorización y posicionamiento regional.

The event aims to discuss Open Science and Open Access from a critical perspective. It will present the Open Science initiatives at IBICT and their impact on Brazilian science.

Knowledge produced by scientific research is a common good and a fundamental right, not a privilege for the few. Scientific articles, often the result of research funded by public resources and the collaborative work of researchers, should be accessible to everyone, without economic or institutional barriers. Restricting access to such content through paywalls or exclusive publishing models undermines the principle of equity, slows scientific progress, and denies civil society the benefits of shared knowledge. The free circulation of knowledge—enabled by open access publishing models and transparency policies—is essential for a truly democratic, collaborative, and socially driven research ecosystem.

Behind this effort, there are volunteers who work tirelessly and without compensation to make this miracle possible. There are journals that are not funded by any institution and do not generate revenue, yet they exist thanks to the passion of these volunteers for knowledge sharing. For these reasons, such journals must be protected and supported—even when they are penalized by a research evaluation system that tends to disregard them simply because they are young or not indexed in conventional metrics.

Promoting open access to scientific articles is not only an ethical stance but also a strategic choice for the future of research and society.

Open science is transforming how we share knowledge, data, and discoveries. This webinar introduces the core principles of open and FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) data for early-career researchers and medical students. Learn how transparency, collaboration, and smart data management can make your research reproducible and impactful across disciplines.

We’ll discuss real examples of how open-data ecosystems connect devices, data, and publications to make every discovery traceable and reusable.

Join us to explore how you can be part of a global movement making science more connected, transparent, and fair.

What is "open source"? In reality, answering to this question is extremely complex, this concept is even a source of conflict in its interpretation. Usually associated with software, we could be at the dawn of a paradigm shift in the very meaning of this concept which could extend beyond software which could encompass various typologies of digital resources.

This will be a discussion about the idea of open source resources, this (open) resources where source files are provided to enable truly their modification (ex: odt/docx/latex files of a pdf). Open licenses provide the right to modify without the ability to do so, open source resources is probably the missing step in open science.

Come to this exchange to try to understand "open source" together!

Initiative related to a citizen research project on the meaning of open source with the intent to build a collaborative open science and open education project (https://open-source-undefined.org/).

Information Poster Presentation

This session explores how open-science practices and data-integrated publishing can strengthen reproducible research in Pakistan. Based on the Conduct Science flagship presentation, it will highlight open instrumentation, FAIR data workflows, and metadata standards that can make regional research more interoperable and transparent.

“Bilgimizin sahibi kim?” teması, içinde yaşadığımız çalkantılı zaman diliminde birey ve toplumların ürettiği bilgi üzerindeki kontrolü yeniden nasıl sağlayabilecekleri hakkında çarpıcı bir soru soruyor. Ayrıca bilginin nasıl üretilip paylaşıldığı, nereden geldiği ve kimlerin sesinin duyulup duyulmadığı üzerine de düşünmeye davet ediyor.

En el marco de la Semana Internacional del Acceso Abierto (#OAWeek) 2025 y su llamado a debatir sobre “¿Quién es el dueño de nuestro conocimiento?”, la comunidad REMERI-CUDI te invita a unirte a la discusión y reflexión crítica ante la creciente influencia de los monopolios de la publicación y los ecosistemas comerciales que rodean a la investigación y la comunicación académica.

¿Cómo impactan estos modelos en el acceso equitativo, la visibilidad y la preservación de la ciencia? ¿Qué papel debe asumir la comunidad académica para reafirmar el control sobre su propia producción intelectual?

¡Acompáñanos a debatir sobre cómo impulsar una Ciencia Abierta realmente justa y sostenible en la defensa de un conocimiento comunitario, abierto y sin barreras!

Publicar é inerente ao processo de investigação científica e corresponde a uma das formas mais frequentes de disseminação do trabalho realizado. O movimento de Acesso Aberto trouxe ao mercado editorial outros modos de abordagem deste processo que importa conhecer e explorar.

Na sessão Publicar em acesso aberto: onde e como? serão apresentadas e detalhadas essas possibilidades, reportando às exigências das agências financiadoras de investigação científica e centrando-se na resposta a três questões essenciais: onde publicar em Acesso Aberto, evitando as práticas de edição agressivas e/ou duvidosas por parte de alguns editores comerciais e como publicar em Acesso Aberto, garantindo o impacto da produção científica e respeitando os direitos de autor.

Disappearing data! Unreadable ancient files! Ordinary researchers losing hours of their time trapped in data nightmares! This Halloween week, join UNM HSLIC's Research Data Specialist for an hour of spine-tingling, hair-raising data horror stories...and some advice to prevent them from happening to you. Feel free to lurk or bring some data horror stories of your own to share. Beware: This session is not for the faint of heart.

UCLA Library will present initial findings from its Open Books Pilot, a project designed to restore copyright ownership to UCLA faculty for selected monograph publications. Supported by a 2023 grant from the Arcadia Fund, the pilot facilitates the re-acquisition of rights from publishers. This enables faculty to regain control over their intellectual property and makes the titles available open access.

Through Creative Commons licensing and deposit in the UC eScholarship repository, the program ensures long-term preservation and global access to faculty scholarship. This initiative aligns with Arcadia’s mission to promote open access and the free exchange of knowledge.

We will discuss how the pilot is a win-win for all participants. Join us to learn how this model empowers faculty authors, institutions and publishers, and how it contributes to a more open and equitable scholarly publishing ecosystem.
