This ALN webinar is hosted online by the Research Support Group.

This event will focus on the Green Open Access model, exploring how libraries and institutions perceive and utilise Green Open Access methods in light of sector changes and the Open Research landscape.

The event will feature presentations on a range of Green OA topics and projects, demonstrating the power of Green Open Access, its challenges and the work libraries are doing to support Green Open Access. It is aimed at everyone engaging in research, from librarians and research support staff to authors and researchers (academic and non-academic).

Presentations include:

Martin Gleghorn (Durham University): ‘It’s not easy seeing green? An exploration into Green Open Access trends and discoverability’
Back in March 2025, as part of the inaugural Universities for North-East England Open Research Week, members of the Research Support team at Durham presented the findings of some initial research into deposit trends and the discoverability of our Green Open Access outputs. In this talk, I will revisit some of our findings from that research, raise the question of why some outputs are indexed successfully and some are not, and explore the potential significance of this in the wider scholarly communications landscape.
Megan Kilvington (York St John University): “Green at the Centre: How York St John aims to advocate for Green Open Access”
This presentation will explore the development of a new Open Scholarship Policy built on Green Open Access principles, encompassing Open Access, Open Data and Rights Retention. It will discuss the challenges in revising policies and promoting new strategies after a period of offering gold open access.
