A year ago, bepress Managing Director Jean-Gabriel Bankier and Product Marketing Manager Promita Chatterji wrote that it was time to reevaluate the way we talk about open access: we need to talk about why it matters.

Since bepress joined Elsevier in August, the conversation has gained new momentum as librarians and scholars ask what the news means. With added visibility and resources, the bepress community can broaden the traditional open access framework and add its voice to the discussion of why open access matters, on campus and off.

Join us for a free webinar update on last year’s 100 Stories of Open Access Impact. Promita Chatterji will share new anecdotes that show why open access matters, using bepress’s framework of demonstrable impact for the library and institution.
