Strategies to Access Published Literature and Textbooks as OTPs 

<description>&lt;p&gt;This video/podcast includes a discussion and acknowledgment of many of the systemic forces that sustain a system of exclusive control of scholarly publication that limits accessibility and engagement for people outside of academia and elite institutions in particular. Supplementary learning is included to offer historic context, the scale of the challenge, and active movements seeking to address access barriers and open up science internationally. The solutions to this complex challenge will require partnerships within and outside the system and will require challenging the system and traditions. After completing the lecture and engaging with the supplementary learning materials please reflect on your own barriers to accessing scholarly work and discussion with others possible solutions to these barriers over time.&lt;/p&gt;
