Open Science & Open Scholarship

Open Science is a global research reform movement and a set of scholarly practices that aims to make more research transparent and accessible

Open Access (OA)

Open-access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. What makes it possible is the Internet and the consent of the author or copyright-holder. OA is entirely compatible with peer review, and all the major OA initiatives for scientific and scholarly literature insist on its importance.
