Welcome to the OpenCon Community

Welcome to the OpenCon community. With the annual events at the core, OpenCon supports a dynamic, diverse, and growing community that works year round to advance Open Access, Open Education and Open Data. The OpenCon community is open to anyone—not just those who have attended the main conference or a satellite event. Together, we can and are build a conference and, more importantly, a community that makes a difference.

Upcoming Events

Tuesday, April 11, 2023 at 12:00 PM Eastern Time (US & Canada)

April 2023 Librarian Community Call

As more funder open access policies are launched—and more researchers are covered by one or more requirements—there is an increasing need to support authors in fulfilling the varied terms of these policies. With a mission to build tools so that open access is easy and equitable, OA.Works has focused on providing support to faculty, funders, and libraries to make compliance as easy as possible. Join the next OpenCon Library Community Call on Tuesday, April 11th, at 12pm ET / 9am PT for a conversation with Joe McArthur, director of OA.Works, about emerging tools to support compliance and what kinds of future support would be most helpful for libraries.
