Abstract

The evolving landscape of scholarly communications in British Columbia was explored from the perspectives of academic librarians and faculty. Members of the Canadian Association of research Libraries are building and filling institutional repositories so that their faculty can make their own work open access, something that funding agencies are increasingly expecting. Sandra Wong presented on the liaison librarian perspective on scholarly communications, as well as scholarly communications initiatives at Simon Fraser University Library. SFU Library is, among other things, home of development of Open Journal Systems.
