This panel of presenters from members of the Coalition of Open Access Institutions (COAPI) will present information about what strategies have been most successful in fostering a culture of open access (OA) at their universities. Each presenter will highlight different strategies for enabling OA to succeed. Some of the topics to be discussed include: strategies for getting faculty buy-in, benefits of OA deposit for articles in terms of impact, the land grant institutional context mandating public access to publicly funded research, most effective outreach programs to raise awareness, working with the individual departments and schools to gain their support, and strategies for working with university administrations to ensure OA success.
