  • Explain what open access means, and what OA incentives exist at Yale to a friend.
  • Use web tools/platforms such as DOAJ, OSF, and EliScholar to find information about an OA journal or upload their work to preprint server/repository, respectively.
  • Recall policy changes of the NIH and OSTP that encourage openness of taxpayer-funded research— past, present & forthcoming (i.e. NIH Public Access Mandate, 2008 & OSTP Memo, effective 2025).
