It’s Open Access Week. Everywhere. To celebrate, Creative Commons Aotearoa NZ is hosting a series of blog posts that focus on key issues in the rapidly developing OA environment, each of which make very interesting reading for NZ researchers:

• Open Access MegaJournals – Have They Changed Everything? (Peter Binfield, co-founder of PeerJ and previously the Publisher of PLOS ONE.)
• Levelling up to Open Research Data (Deborah Fitchett, Digital Access Coordinator at Lincoln University.)
• A Big Year – OA in Australia 2013 (Dr Danny Kingsley is the Executive Officer for the Australian Open Access Support Group.)
• The Need for Libre Open Access (Fabiana Kubke, Senior Lecturer, School of Medical Sciences, at the University of Auckland and Chair of the Creative Commons Aotearoa New Zealand Advisory Panel.)
