Did you know that the library spends over $6 million annually to provide access to research outputs that researchers have provided freely to publishers? Globally, academic publishers earn over $25 billion US each year.

The documentary Paywall: The Business of Scholarship explores the world of academic publishing, challenging the rationale behind the for-profit academic publishing model and focusing on the need for open access to research.

Bring your lunch and join us for this free screening. Everyone is welcome! Running time is approximately 65 minutes.

McLaughlin Library, Room 289
