Good Practices For University Open-Access Policies… : DASH Story 2015-12-07

Story content

I am a graduate student in the Master of Library Science program at East Carolina University. This article was recommended to me by my professor of my academic libraries course after she read the draft of my term paper on open access. After reading about 'sharing my story' in this article and how it is helpful, I made a point to fill this out. I am a huge proponent of open access. I am interested in reading scholarly articles for many of my classes and on topics that interest me and appreciate being able to access the information without having to pay a fee for each one. Even though I have access to many journals through the ECU library, I have come across a few that require payment. I end up not using them because I find enough information without them.
