    The Levy Library at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai  is excited to invite all library professionals and their respective patron communities to attended our next  Research Insider series event, Free or Fee: How Open Access Publishing Impacts Your Choices as an Author.

    Why are some journals offering or requiring a fee to publish an article? How does paying to publish impact the prestige and accessibility of your work? What is a Creative Commons license and how does it impact the dissemination of your work? The Open Access publishing model has ushered in these and other pressing questions for academics. Learn how Open Access is changing how you publish your research, what requirements funding agencies impose on researchers, and who owns the copyright of published works. Our featured speakers will include:
