Let me count the ways: Obstacles and opportunities for access to conservation literature

Why attend
Have you ever come across a great piece of conservation science but felt deterred by the USD$30-per-article sticker price? Have you ever felt unable to produce the most impactful science-based recommendations for conservation action due to lack of access to journals? You are not alone.
HideDescription
The panel discussion aims to offer an opportunity for conversation among the all-too-often siloed players responsible for producing and providing access to conservation literature—researchers, librarians, and publishers—to spark ideas and ultimately, solutions, for how to ensure access to literature and strengthen the scientific underpinnings of nature conservation efforts.
