Open Scholarship & Learning

Faculty, staff, and students at UW-Madison produce a broad array of scholarly, research and creative endeavors including data, research publications, literary and other artistic works, and educational materials. The UW-Madison Libraries are here to encourage an open scholarly ecosystem and to support those interested in making their work open, or freely accessible for use in teaching, learning, and research. An open scholarly ecosystem can advance the public good and the progress of scholarship, meet the needs of current and future scholars, and help us to live up to the promise of the Wisconsin Idea.

The UW-Madison Libraries provide a number of services that can help you make your research, creative outputs, or education materials open. You can find information on these services and resources here.
