Law and the humanities often approach similar questions differently: who can access and reuse knowledge, and under what conditions? A valuable exchange at #UserRights2026 in Geneva on copyright, #RightToResearch and #JustAI. We need more conversations across these fields. #DARIAH

Open access isn’t “just” about APCs. Arts & humanities scholars weigh reputational risk, equity, time, image rights, and ethics when considering OA—often sidelining it despite shared values. Prestige + tenure still win. OA reform must go deeper. Access: bit.ly/crl-873-2
