中文 Taipei Medical University Library
Open Access Mission: The Cost of Knowledge

💡 What is OA (Open Access)?
Simply put, it means making academic research freely and openly available for anyone in the world to read and share, breaking down the costly barriers to knowledge! Every October, "International Open Access Week" is a global celebration promoting open scholarly resources.

This year's theme is "The Cost of Knowledge", inviting everyone to explore the true costs involved in creating, preserving, and disseminating knowledge — and how we can make knowledge more equitably accessible to all.
The Library has created this quest game to help you master OA knowledge in a fun way!
