The OA @ CUNY Ongoing Meetup

At the Open Access Publishing Network @ CUNY meetup yesterday, we set the date for our next meeting* (If you missed it, you can see the notes from the meeting here):

Join us!
Friday, February 17
*2:30-4pm
@ the Mina Rees Library at the CUNY Graduate Center

We’re going to try to make each meeting be a) one part skillshare/information sharing/presentation, and b) one part discussion. On the docket for February is to a) have an introductory, large themes of Open Access OA crash-course presentation and b) to talk about what goals we share for Open Access–overall and at CUNY. Please join us if you have any interest in learning more about these topics or sharing what you know about open access, free culture, and scholarly communication!
