    Summary
    In February 2020, the Office of the Chief Science Advisor released the Roadmap For Open Science (https://www.ic.gc.ca/eic/site/063.nsf/eng/h_97992.html), providing recommendations for research funded by federal departments and agencies. The intent of open science is to make research outputs and data freely accessible with minimal restrictions. While the initial focus of the roadmap is on research carried out within federal departments and agencies (intramural R&D), it highlights the need for national approach for federally funded extramural research. This session will provide an opportunity to discuss and provide feedback to the CSA, from the perspective of Canada’s scholarly community, on the opportunities and challenges of implementing a Canadian open science policy.

    Summary
    Open Access (OA) makes published journal articles free to read, use, modify, and share. Although the value of OA has long been recognized, the movement towards OA has been slow, due in large part to challenges with funding OA publishing. While the standard approach to cover OA publishing costs has involved author-paid Article Processing Charges (APCs), a number of recent alternative business models have been proposed to accelerate this transition. This session convenes a range of Canadian and international stakeholders to discuss the challenges and opportunities for sustainable OA publishing.
