About Plan S at CTK
On Thursday, 4 March 2021, the Central Technical Library (CTK) held an online lecture about Coalition S, Plan S and the transition to complete and prompt open access to scientific publications.
CTK director, Miro Pušnik, opened the event by initially explaining what Coalition S is, and briefly going through its history and the membership of Slovenian organisations.
Next, Maja Vihar, a information specialist for natural science at CTK and a member of two working groups within the Coalition S Expert Group, gave a lecture on Coalition S, its principles and its Rights Retention Strategy. She explained how the Coalition S aims to achieve a complete and fast transition of magazines and publications into an open access model. After the lecture, a brief Q&A session followed.
The recording of the event is available on YouTube, the PPT slides are available here.
