Conference day celebrating the 10th anniversary of ORBi
In 2008, the University of Liège committed itself to a strong institutional policy in terms of Open Access, through the implementation of ORBi, its institutional archive, and the now famous "Liège mandate". 10 years later, what has happened to this proactive policy? To what extent has it borne fruit?
To celebrate the 10 years of ORBi, ULiège Library organised a day of conferences on 20 November, 2018. It provided an opportunity to take a look in the rear-view mirror but also to see the place that Open Access and Open Science have taken in Belgium, and internationally, in the way of communicating science: strong policy, involvement of research funds, mobilisation of researchers and academic and research institutions. All this and more as the new challenges for the years to come: evaluation of researchers, open data, new models of electronic publication, implementation of international policies.
