The annual International Open Access Week is a great opportunity for the academic and research community to discuss the benefits and challenges of Open Access, exchange new ideas with colleagues, and to inspire a wider public to make OA the norm in science and research. This year’s theme “Who Owns Our Knowledge?” will address the question of how, in a time of disruption, communities can reassert control over the knowledge they produce.

As in previous years, a number of Swiss universities and libraries have joined forces to put together a wide-ranging programme of online, hybrid and local events in different formats for the OA-Week in Switzerland this year.
