This program addresses metadata needs of open access (OA) materials and the
use of visual indicators to help users determine their access rights.

Presenters may discuss:


-          use of existing or new vocabularies, schema, and other projects,
such as Crossmark, JISC/UKOLN's Vocabularies for OA, and ONIX-PL in library
systems


-          use of OA vocabularies and schema for faculty consultation and
education related to scholarly communication, author’s rights, and open
access


-          studies of OA indicator use and successes/failures


All presentations at ALA Annual Las Vegas 2014 will be recorded. Speaker
agreements will be forwarded to all speakers and will require consent for
video recording.


The deadline for proposals is *December 9, 2013*.  Proposals may be
