Hi Lauri, Thanks for being in touch! Yes, we’ve been discussing a joint OA Week event, but planning has been progressing slowly due to summer vacations. The two broad themes we’ve pitched and are deciding between focus on the U of California/Elsevier standoff and decolonizing open (building off the blog post by Adam, Bali, Hodgkinson-Williams, and Morgan). Hope is checking to see if we can use SFU Vancouver as a venue again this year, due to proximity to public transit. More to come very soon! Best, Lindsay ________________________________ From: Bcoel <bcoel-bounces(a)mail.bccampus.ca> on behalf of Lauri Aesoph <lauri.aesoph(a)bccampus.ca> Sent: Wednesday, August 14, 2019 11:44:09 AM To: bcoel(a)mail.bccampus.ca <bcoel(a)mail.bccampus.ca> Subject: [Bcoel] BCOEL: Open Access week plans Dear BCOEL members, Does your group have plans for Open Access week<http://www.openaccessweek.org/> scheduled for October 21 - 27 this year?
