Audio about OA

This list is part of the Open Access Directory.

• This is a list of audio recordings about open access, not audio recordings which happen to be open access.
• Audios from a particular event, such as a conference, should be listed together. But if the speaker was a solo performance, such as an interview or lecture, then it should be listed by speaker. However, an audio should only be listed in one category.
• We were not able to find all of the metadata for some of these audios, such as the date, duration, format, or occasion of the recording. Please add this information when you can.
• Chronological by event and alphabetical by speaker.
• Related lists in OAD: (1) Educational materials about OA, (2) Events celebrating Open Access Day, (3) Video about OA.
• For real-time updates, some not yet reflected here, follow the oa.audio tag of the Open Access Tracking Project.
