This Open Access Week, MacEwan Library would like to take this opportunity to applaud everyone who shares their research, data, knowledge, and creative works openly online for others to read, use, learn from, and build upon. 

For researchers, students, alumni, and the broader global community, it matters.

Want Some Help Sharing Your Work?

MacEwan Library supports a range of open-source platforms to help faculty and students share and digitally preserve their works at no cost:

• Archive scholarly and creative works, including exceptional student works, in MacEwan’s institutional repository, Research Online at MacEwan (RO@M).
• Publish student works in one of our library-hosted undergraduate student journals. 
• Develop an open textbook using MacEwan’s open access book publishing software that the library is currently piloting. 
• Deposit research data in MacEwan’s data repository.
• Create a digital scholarship project using the library’s Digital Exhibits site.

The Library also offers open access publishing discounts and resources to help find suitable open access publishers.
