Il 10 dicembre 2013 l’UNESCO ha lanciato Open Access Repository (OAR), un archivio istituzionale ad accesso aperto che mette a disposizione più di 300 pubblicazioni tra libri, report e articoli.

Riportiamo a titolo di esempio due delle pubblicazioni disponibili (per consultarle tutte vai alla maschera di ricerca):

• World Atlas of Gender Equality Education (2012)
• Global Survey on Internet Privacy and Freedon of Expression (2012)

Dal comunicato stampa rilasciato dall’UNESCO:

UNESCO has launched its Open Access Repository (OAR) making more than 300 on-line books, reports, and articles freely available. The OAR will operate under a new open licensing system developed by the Creative Commons organization specifically for intergovernmental agencies.

Currently, the Repository contains works in some 12 languages, including major UNESCO reports and key research publications.

As well as the 300 Open Access publications, UNESCO will provide on-line availability to hundreds of other important reports and titles. Covering a wide range of topics from all regions of the world, this knowledge can now be shared by the general public, professionals, researchers, students and policy-makers. All new publications will be freely available under an open license.
