This course uses a criminological-lens to explore why, how, and to what effect there is (not) open access to academic outputs—things like articles, books, datasets, software programs, and educational resources. Emphasis is placed on open (and closed) access as a matter of law, crime, criminal justice, and security. Substantial attention is also given to access as a matter of technology, business, and communication/media. The course itself is open access—an open educational resource. This includes the Syllabus and Open Access Reader, a compilation of open access excerpts that inform open access.

A compilation of excerpts from MIT Press books that're open access and inform open access, republished with the open-source platform PubPub. The readings describe and analyze (digital) law, crime, criminal justice, and security.
