Its time to change things

 

You can change things - we already have. By advocating for policies, both on campus and nationally, that require the results of research be made openly available and educating those on your campus about the importance of widening access to research results, you can make a real difference in ensuring students, doctors, researchers, and others aren't locked out of the research they need - Learn more about the problem. After all, though we're students today, we're tomorrow's researchers, professors, doctors, professionals, and leaders - it's up to us to make sure that what should be knowledge for all isn't locked up for the gains of a few. Learn more about the solution.
Moves to ensure Open Access are taking hold among research funders, campuses, individuals, and student organizations. Here’s a quick overview of those areas, plus how the Coalition is helping, and where student action is needed now. Just remember, you have lots of choices about how to help and how committed you’d like to be.
