Olvera Street in the oldest part of downtown Los Angeles, California
Here’s a seasonal and timely message from the Free to Use and Reuse collection at the Library of Congress.
The seasonal part of the message is they are profiling images of autumn, Día de Muertos and Halloween in this subset of their collection.
The timely part is that this is also Open Access Week, a global event for the academic and research community to continue to learn about the potential benefits of Open Access, to share what they’ve learned with colleagues, and to help inspire wider participation in helping to make Open Access a new norm in scholarship and research. This year’s emphasis is on examining who the knowledge-sharing and information spaces and systems are designed for, who is missing, who is excluded by the business models we use, and whose interests are prioritized.
