Turkish OA brochure

Turkey's Open Access & Institutional Repository Working Group has published a brochure on OA (in Turkish). One of its authors, Ilkay Holt, describes it on OA Librarian:

[The brochure will] guide researchers, academics, and librarians on what is open access; what is not open access; how to create open access: green and gold ways; open access and copyright; impact of open access and royalty free publication; why and how to support open access; open access in international context; towards to national open access movement and open access activities in Turkey. It is similar in format to the SPARC OA Brochure. The ANKOS OA Brochure will be distributed to the university administations, libraries, and research centers in Turkey to create awareness on the subject.
