OCAD U Library 2019 Winter: Open Access

OCAD U Open Research Repository Update

Did you know that as of December 12, 2018, Open Research Repository papers have been downloaded 120,974 times? That includes research and creative outputs from OCAD U-affiliated faculty, staff, and grad students. Having your work in the repository means that those without university affiliations can access your work. Open Access can lead to an up to 30% increase in citations and a recent OECD report suggests that this increase is driven by repositories. 

The following are some selected highlights from the collection.
