English abstract
Latin American open access (OA) initiatives were built upon the foundations laid by the regional cooperative information networks, databases and indexes that started to be developed from the 1970s. OA had an early start in the region in the 1990s, because it preceded the first worldwide OA declaration. This article summarizes the reasons behind the emergence of OA in the region, offers details and data about the most relevant initiatives and discusses some of the current challenges to keep advancing in this arena.
Spanish abstract
Las iniciativas de acceso abierto (AA) de América Latina se construyeron sobre las bases sentadas por las redes cooperativas de información regionales, bases de datos e índices que se empezaron a desarrollar desde los años 70. El AA tuvo un temprano comienzo en la región durante los años 90, ya que antecede a la primera declaración mundial de AA. Este artículo resume las razones detrás del surgimiento del AA en la región, brinda detalles y datos sobre las iniciativas más sobresalientes y discute algunos de los retos actuales para seguir avanzando en esta arena.
