OA speakers bureau
From OAD
- This is a list of people willing to speak about OA at conferences. Listing here does not commit one to accept any particular invitation.
- Please include an institutional affiliation and contact information or a link to a page containing contact information.
- This list started life as Open Access Advocates Worldwide, compiled by the Canadian Library Association Information Commons Interest Group. It's possible that some of the people named here were willing to appear on a list of advocates but not a list of potential public speakers. If so, we will gladly remove them, and of course individuals may remove themselves.
- We thank the Canadian Library Association Information Commons Interest Group for its willingness to move the list to OAD.
- Alphabetical by country, and then by speaker.
