(8 Oct 2021) Gerald R. Beasley, the Carl A. Kroch University Librarian at Cornell University, has taken a keen interest in exploring and advocating for approaches that academic libraries can take to advance the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and has written particularly about the intersection of the UN’s goals and those of the open access movement.
There are 2 parts in this interview. In Part 1, Timon Oefelein (Senior Manager, Strategic Partnerships and Outreach, Springer Nature), asks Gerald what libraries can do to help advance those goals; in Part 2, Gerald will ask Timon what publishers can do.
