SUMMARY:One Click to Credibility: Leveraging Open Access to Combat Misinformation
DESCRIPTION:The internet is flooded with misinformation\, biased content\, and unreliable sources\, making it hard to discern truth from falsehood—especially with the rise of AI-generated content and platforms like ChatGPT replacing traditional search engines for many young adults. \n\n\n\nAcademic libraries face growing challenges in promoting trustworthy resources amid shrinking budgets and competition from convenient but unverified sources. However\, libraries remain among the most trusted public institutions and can leverage open access to provide high-quality\, peer-reviewed content cost-effectively. \n\n\n\nThis one-hour webinar will explore student information seeking behavior\, public trust in libraries\, open access publishing trends\, and how the CloudSource platform simplifies access to 65M+ credible academic resources with no login or barriers to access.

SUMMARY:Knowledge for Everyone: How Open Access in Discovery Furthers Your Library’s Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion Goals
DESCRIPTION:Diversity\, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) has been widely adopted by academia as a goal—it is even being added to accreditation standards. Open Access (OA) content promises equitable access without paywall barriers\, thus helping to level the playing field for users without privilege. OA supports and inspires researchers in underprivileged groups and regions—diversifying the voice of the resulting research. OA also allows alumni a vast\, easily-accessible resource for lifelong learning. \n\n\n\nJoin us to explore these ideas and others with a panel of librarians that are on the front lines of using OA to help move the needle on DEI at their institutions.

SUMMARY:Googley Eyed: Is Google the Best Way to Find Open Access Resources?
DESCRIPTION:In 2022\, 59% of all scholarly articles were published with an Open Access (OA) license. While these articles are available on the open web\, is Google (or Google Scholar) the best way for end users to find these resources? Even though Google is free and ubiquitous\, should libraries concede this space to a commercial resource? \n\n\n\nThis webinar will compare Google searching for OA with CloudSource OA\, which aggregates the global body of OA and open educational resources (OER) and delivers a simple yet powerful Discovery experience.  \n\n\n\nOur Panelists from existing CloudSource customers will discuss their experiences with offering users a better way to discover this vast and rapidly expanding trove of open content. \n\n\n\nSpeakers: \n\n\n\nLinda Barr\, Associate Professor\, MLIS Head Librarian\, Technical Services and Library Automation\, Austin Community College \n\n\n\nDr. Megan Lowe\, Director of University Libraries and Associate Professor\, Northwestern State University of Louisiana \n\n\n\nHannah Herrlich\, Emerging Technologies Librarian Assistant\, Walsh Library of Fordham University \n\n\n\nModerator: \n\n\n\nRick Branham\, VP Pre-Sales\, Academic & Content Solutions\, CloudSource OA
