Reflection Exercise What other questions have you heard that you would add to this list? Select one of the questions – or consider ones of your own or that you’ve heard - and brainstorm potential responses to faculty members or graduate students or administrators. Reflect on how you might prepare yourself to answer the question in the future.

Why should I care about Open Access? I can get access to everything that I need. Why doesn’t the Library just stop subscribing to large journal packages? I don't use or publish in costly journals. My field is more about book publication than journal publication so how do these changes in scholarly publishing & communication affect me? Is Open Access publishing serious scholarly publishing? Isn’t it for someone who can’t get published in a serious journal? I have to publish in the key peer-reviewed journals in my field in order to get tenure. My scholarly society is thinking about moving their journal to a commercial publisher. Are there other options? I just found out that my funding agency requires that I make the results of my research freely available online. I’ve also heard that some funding agencies require data management plans. What does this mean? Why should I pay attention to author’s rights? I post my article/book chapter on my website anyway. Can I use the graph I published in Journal X in a future publication? What’s the point of an institutional repository? I want my article to be open access but I really don’t think that the author should have to pay for it. Do you have any suggestions? As a Collections Librarian, I am getting increasing demands from our faculty to support institutional memberships for a number of Open Access collections. My Administrators also want me to support other new model initiatives like SCOAP3, DOAJ, ArXiv and The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy. There is no room in the budget. What can I do to create a sustainable support model for scholarship? Why does the library continue to cancel journals that I need in my discipline even when budgets aren’t flat?
