General Objective contribute to the development of scientific research and the publication of its results SciELO – Scientific Electronic Library Online The access to scientific information is essential to the development Access to up to date information feed and feedback the innovation process. And promote inclusion. Equitable access to scientific information is essential. Open access is a (or the) way
