Open scholarship includes all forms of openness in the teaching and research environment. It enables free access to research outputs and educational resources outside paywalls and beyond the academy, 'changing how knowledge is created, preserved, and shared'. By embracing open practices and frameworks, our researchers, teachers and students will join a world-wide movement of scholars with deep links into their communities.
