Open Access at Antioch

Here are a couple of ways Antioch is supporting open access:

• ANE’s Environmental Studies doctoral candidates deposit their dissertations in the OhioLINK ETD (Electronic Theses and Dissertations) Center, an open access repository, as do doctoral candidates in Antioch’s PhD in Leadership and Change program.
• Dr. Carolyn Kenny, a faculty member in Antioch’s PhD in Leadership and Change program, is co-editor-in-chief of Voices: A World Forum for Music Therapy, an open access journal.
• ANE faculty members, such as Jim Gruber, submit articles to open access journals.

And here are some other actions Antioch could be taking:

• Antioch’s leadership could commit resources to developing an institutional repository, similar to the one at The Ohio State University, its Knowledge Bank.
• Faculty could pass a resolution, similar to ones passed by faculty at Harvard, MIT, and many other universities, requiring researchers to deposit articles and other work in an open access repository.

That’s a start. Let’s get going!
