"New technology and innovative business models offer proven opportunities for enhancing the sharing of scholarly information - research papers, primary data and other evidence, creative activity and other products of research and scholarship - across institutions and audiences. This scholarly communication - understood as the system through which research and other scholarly writings are created, evaluated for quality, disseminated to the scholarly community, and preserved for future use - promotes a shared system of research and scholarship. ACRL sees a need to vigorously re-orient all facets of library services and operations to the evolving technologies and models that are affecting the scholarly communication process. There is wide variance in the background understanding of and engagement in scholarly communication as a critical perspective and worldview for academic librarians. This Scholarly Communication toolkit was designed by ACRL's Scholarly Communication Committee as a resource for education and advocacy efforts in transforming the scholarly communication landscape."

La Revista Digital Universitaria es un espacio para promover la investigación, el análisis y la creación en México e Iberoamérica.

Este esfuerzo de la máxima casa de estudios del país, es un buen ejemplo de la propuesta que en materia de acceso abierto se realiza en México. Debo decir que, muy a mi pesar, los contenidos de la misma presentan numerosas infracciones ortográficas, que demeritan la calidad de la propuesta ante los ojos tradicionales. Aún así, es algo que se puede subsanar. Las grandes universidades, y las medianas y las pequeñas, pueden jugar un papel de suma importancia en el movimiento de Acceso Abierto, especialmente para el caso de las ciencias sociales y humanidades. La universidad era una institución moribunda en el siglo XIX, y gracias a ella las ciencias sociales se instalaron en el mainstream académico, tal como enseña Wallerstein; en el siglo XXI una universidad revitalizada puede impulsar lo que ya se considera revolución científica.
