Open Access (OA) publishing makes research freely available online, allowing anyone to read, share, and build on scholarly work without cost barriers.
OA offers greater visibility, more citations, and compliance with funder and institutional requirements. At the same time, navigating the different models, costs, and copyright considerations can feel complex.
This guide provides a clear overview of Open Access publishing, what it is, why it matters, and how to make informed decisions about where and how to publish.

Many courses at CDU have units with an Indigenous perspective embedded in the curriculum. This means you frequently research and write about issues related to First Nations peoples. It is important to be both accurate and appropriate when using terms to discuss Indigenous issues. This shows respect and also reveals knowledge of one of the oldest cultures in the world. The A-Z of First Nations terms is a useful resource to refer to when writing your assignments. It has been developed in collaboration with CDU staff from First Nations Leadership and First Nations Students and Engagement, so it is an authoritative source of information. We recommend downloading it and referring to it to check you have accurately and appropriately used First Nations terms. |
