Abstract
Open Access (OA) Week 2013 came to an end last Friday here at UCT. Instead of the traditional scholar-scholar focus, we focused on scholar-student and scholar-community access with the overall theme this year of access. This was summed up by our panel discussion title: "Out in the cold: accessing scholarly resources beyond the ivory tower". Our events explored what OA is as well as disparities in access to scholarly materials between well-resourced institutions (such as UCT) and organisations or individuals outside of this enabling environment. Some highlights.
