Cheers Wayne *International Open Access Week.* Athabasca University is participating in the first international Open Access Week – October 19-23, 2009 – to broaden awareness and understanding of open access. During this week Athabasca University will present a series of five noon-hour webcasts exploring major issues and opportunities presented by open access.
