SUMMARY:Community over Commercialization: Why Choose to Publish Open Access\, an Open Access Week Panel
DESCRIPTION:Location: Lippincott Seminar Room 242\, Van Pelt-Dietrich 
 Library Center\, 2nd floor\, west end. In person and on Zoom \n\nThrough 
 the theme\, "Community over Commercialization\," International Open Access 
 Week 2023 highlights the importance of the public accessibility of 
 scholarly research to a wide audience regardless of location or 
 affiliation. This year’s theme “encourages a candid conversation about 
 which approaches to open scholarship prioritize the best interests of the 
 public and the academic community—and which do not.” \n\nThe University 
 of Pennsylvania Press and the Penn Libraries co-host this panel discussion 
 to provide a primer on open access. Our panel features\, editors\, 
 authors\, and the Journals Director at Penn Press.\n\nThey will talk about 
 their experience with open access publishing\, how open access publication 
 increases the dissemination and reach of research\, and the motivations for 
 scholars to publish in open access venues.\n\nPanelists will address 
 equitable access to publication in the face of language barriers or the 
 geographical specificity of the topics of research and the ways in which 
 open access to the scholarly record can add value to the research community 
 and to society more broadly.\n\nThe panelists will highlight how equitable 
 open access publishing increases the impact of journals and their content\, 
 raises up diverse voices\, and extends the reach of scholarship to new 
 audiences. \n\nPanelists: \n\n\n	Jocelyn Dawson\, Journals Director\, 
 University of Pennsylvania Press \n	Lynn Ransom\, Editor\, Manuscript 
 Studies and Curator of SIMS Programs & Schoenberg Database Manager\n	Amisha
