The purpose of the Open Access Week Awards is to recognize faculty who have made their research open or used open materials in their courses. Open works can foster innovation, develop industry, advance scientific knowledge, increase citations and even support student retention. These awards are intended to assist faculty when demonstrating the impact of their work. Recipients were selected by the Libraries’ Scholarly Publishing Team.
