Why Open Access?
Many Voices is an open access journal. We apply the Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike (CC BY-NC-SA) license to works we publish. Under this license, you agree to make your work legally available for reuse, without permission or fees. Anyone may share, distribute, reuse, or adapt your work, as long as it is properly cited.
Open access refers to the practice of making creative works and scholarly research freely available online to anyone interested in reading it. The research is available free of charge, but it goes further by granting users additional rights, usually via a Creative Commons license, so that people are free to reuse and remix the research.
New knowledge is built by synthesizing current scholarship and then building upon it. If the current scholarship is behind a pay-wall, only those who can afford access can truly contribute to moving our knowledge of a subject forward. Traditional journals can be very expensive, making scholarly research costly for someone with a limited research budget. Open Access levels the playing field so that we all have the same level of access to knowledge.
