College and Research Libraries News 84(9), 311-317. doi:10.5860/crln.84.9.311.2150-6698http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.12613/10180When it comes to information access, academic librarians are advocates for openness. They demonstrate a strong commitment to creating cultures of openness at their institutions, leading the way for others to grasp the power and benefits of open access publishing, open education practices, open data sharing, and more. Breaking down information barriers while establishing pathways to unfettered and free access is a core professional value.
