What are the different projects launched with a strong mission to make knowledge and its resources globally free so that unprivileged and underprivileged scholars could pursue higher education in a continuous form?
The best source of information dissemination and access to it has been the Internet. The Internet connects the whole world and connects information and knowledge. Nowadays, when you enter questions to search for something in google search engine, you get thousands of answers. There are also direct access to information such as web of science, ebscohost, proquest. Access to information has also become easier from sites such as Researchgate and Academia. Googlescholar is also an effective way of research. Online access to thousands of magazines and millions of books is the pinnacle of this business. Online sites of universities, facebook and similar platforms, such as congresses, conferences are sources that can be provided up-to-date information for announcements. Nowadays, although it is easier to access information, it is considered that the main hard work is to extract the most useful ones out of this information and to produce an effective publication from them.
Several initiatives include:
Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ) https://doaj.org/
Public Knowledge Project (PKP) https://pkp.sfu.ca/
Open Knowledge Repository https://openknowledge.worldbank.org/
