Open access is gaining momentum worldwide—but are we truly transforming the system, or just changing the wrappers? What role should libraries play in driving this shift, and how can we prevent old inequities from resurfacing in new models? Colleen Campbell (Strategic Advisor & Coordinator), one of the most influential voices in the movement, joins host Nikesh Gosalia to dig into these critical questions.
In this episode of Insights Xchange, Mandy Hill (Managing Director, Academic Publishing at Cambridge University Press) joins host Nikesh Gosalia to explore the future of university presses.
