To achieve 100% #OpenAccess, you need to engage with issues on #RightsRetention and #OpenLicences. This is where libraries can provide support. 👇

The implementation of #RightsRetention policies brings challenges to every library. Stop solving it alone, join the European Rights Retention Community of Practice (CoP) to collaborate with peers. 👉European RR COP webpage tinyurl.com/285535z4

100% #openaccess starts with 100% #RightsRetention and using #OpenLicences. 🔒 Publisher embargoes (up to 36 months) and restrictive CC BY-NC-ND licences contradict many Europe’s OA goals. 💪 Empower your researchers: look to the Rights Retention Helper tinyurl.com/4uk2xzu6

Libraries: Advocating for #RightsRetention is key for #OpenAccess. It provides immediate OA/reuse, accelerates OA, and clarifies copyright. Make every article accessible! 💪📚 Use the flashcards: tinyurl.com/3385jfhz

Librarians, let's talk rights retention and open licences this week. 📣 #RightsRetention is a key policy tool for achieving 100% open access immediately. Just knowledge, shared. See the card 👇

Librarians: You are the key to unlocking Green Open Access. You guide authors through complex policies; now, let's turn that knowledge into action and boost repository use. Which action is your priority at your institution? Let us know #OA100! 👇 #OpenAccess (open thread)🧵👇

To achieve 100% #OpenAccess, you need to engage with issues on repositories and #GreenOpenAccess route. This is where libraries can support #OA100. 👇

🤖For #GenerativeAI and TDM, libraries must ensure data is structured, open, and machine-readable. Lead by using linked open data, ensuring machine-actionable metadata, and collaborating with IT/Research. #OA100 👉 Seven Pillars for AI-Ready knowledge infrastructure: tinyurl.com/37mpe9j5

Metadata is the key to #OpenScience and reaching 100% OA. 📊 Interoperable metadata = discoverable, machine-readable, and AI-ready research. 👇How to optimise your repository for metadata #OA100

🧭 This week’s challenge: Review your repository policy! Align with COAR and OpenAIRE guidelines and ensure data interoperability with your CRIS system and use PIDs to boost visibility. Share your success story with #OA100 to inspire others. 👉COAR Good Practices: tinyurl.com/25zck4nv

Libraries lead Open Science by making the repository a key infrastructure for achieving 100% #GreenOpenAccess at the institution. Is your repository acknowledged as a strategic asset by your institution? If not, start the conversation today. Let's discuss #OA100.👇

A quick look at how European countries include their repositories as critical infrastructure in national regulations. This is key to achieving 100% #GreenOpenAccess and ensuring long-term preservation. #OA100 #repositories 🧵👇 1/4

Librarians, let's talk repositories & Green #OpenAccess 📣 What makes a repository an essential OA tool? Strong regulations. The #GreenOpenAccess route (via repositories) is the most sustainable path to 100% OA. It needs legal muscle. Are you seeing national or local mandates? Share insights #OA100👇

🌍💎 Last chance to join us for the launch of the Diamond OA Policy Forum! 📢 SPARC Europe leads this Forum as part of the @almasiproject.bsky.social to convene policymakers & funders from Africa, Europe & Latin America on sustaining #DiamondOA. 📅 29 Oct 2025 at 16:00-17:30 CET 🔗 tinyurl.com/bdzdn2na

To achieve 100% open access, you need to engage with issues on copyright and ownership. This is where libraries can support. 👇 #OA100 #OpenAccess #Copyright

The EU supports open science, but legislative and regulatory frameworks often act as barriers, preventing the full implementation of its principles. We need copyright law to support, not hinder, research. #CopyrightReform 👉Check which legal barriers prevent you from 100% OA. Share your challenges.👇

Librarians at the negotiation table can negotiate deals that enable author rights retention, and insist on CC BY as the default licence for all authors; only requiring a more restrictive licence by exception. 👉 Check our recommendations: doi.org/10.5281/zeno...

Librarians, learn with us about #OpenEducation & #OpenScience at the upcoming 'Embrace the Open' workshop from the European Network of Open Education Librarians #ENOEL! 📅28 Oct ⏰13.00-14.30 CET 🔗https://tinyurl.com/ENOELWorkshop12 And stay tuned for the next workshop on OE & #GenAI on 13 Nov!

Librarians: alert researchers to check pub agreements. A 2020 analysis of Europe's top 10 legacy journals found only 1 allowed authors to retain #copyright in all subscription/hybrid journals. The rest demanded full copyright transfer or exclusive licences, limiting reuse 👉 doi.org/10.5281/zeno...

Librarians, let's turn policy into action this #OpenAccessWeek! 🎯 We need to move the needle on 100% #OpenAccess. Your institution can take three key actions this week. Which are you prioritising? #OA100 🧵1/4

This #OpenAccessWeek, we face a critical question: Who owns academic knowledge? Researchers, publishers, or institutions? In some countries, universities and RPOs hold some economic rights over the work of their academics. How is this in your country? Let’s look at some cases: #copyright #OA100 🧵1/4

Librarians: Your authors need you to clarify one key distinction! 🗣️ Moral rights are never transferred, but economic rights can be signed away, which prevents authors from sharing their work openly. Help them retain control over their research to #OA100. Let’s look at the card👇: #copyright

🌍💎 Be part of the discussion at the unique new #DiamondOA Policy Forum! 📅 On 29 Oct 2025, 16:00-17:30 CET @almasiproject.bsky.social launches this Forum for policymakers & funders from Africa, Europe & Latin America to share expertise & discuss needs, progress, challenges. 🔗 tinyurl.com/bdzdn2na

Librarians, let's talk copyright & ownership. 🗣️ It's #OpenAccessWeek 2025! Achieving 100% #OpenAccess starts with knowing who owns the knowledge. 🧠 Researchers are the initial #copyright holders, but many are pressured to sign away rights, meaning less sharing & re(use) #OA100

The race to 100% #OpenAccess is heating up! 🏁 European nations aim for 100% OA in their national plans 👉 France, Ireland, Slovenia & Switzerland. We need immediate access to research; read and reuse. But how do we get to 100%? Let’s talk solutions in the coming weeks #OA100
