This module focuses on resource optimization in general that aims to discuss how the open access environment can be promoted and how the collection development may be facilitated by integrating open access resources with institutional and library resources. At the end of this module, the learner is expected to be able to foster an enabling environment for Open Access, and facilitate collection development by integrating library services.
The module consists of three units. Unit 1 deals with OA mandates and policies; Unit 2 focuses on OA content management; and unit 3 is on harvesting and integration. The Unit 1 which is on open access mandates and policies portraits different policies and mandates at international, national and institutional levels and the related issues. Formulation of Policies/Mandates by the publishers/copy right holders/funding agencies facilitates the wider accessibility of scholarly communications. Through this unit you will be acquainted with sources of OA mandates and policies and analyze the features of some important policies in use. The aim is to prepare you to develop competency to frame a draft OA policy for your institution.
