The University of Lisbon joined the Open Access Week promoted by the Scholarly Publishing and Academic Resources Coalition (SPARC) on 24-30 October.
The information sessions presented on the Open Access initiative at UL once more reinforced the importance of disclosing the results of scientific research and of publications through Open Access, namely via the Repository.UL
The Library-DIC of FMUL participated in this initiative along with other UL libraries, by divulging not only the Open Access week but, above all, by raising the awareness of lecturers and researchers to the importance of registering their work with the Repository and subsequent self-filing of scientific output, thus enhancing the visibility and the impact of the research undertaken at the institution.
