Asian scholars, publishers, and libraries working together to expand open access content can dramatically enhance and accelerate knowledge exchange, gradually reducing the persistent digital divide between “the West and the rest.” Hong Kong has unique advantages and can soon become an open access pioneer for the region.

Open Access publishing is a quiet revolution of knowledge dissemination, aiming to share, at no cost, human knowledge and our cultural heritage throughout the world. I am happy to see that the three major university libraries and presses in Hong Kong have collectively joined this emerging publishing trend through Open Books Hong Kong. I believe this initiative will benefit the academic community as well as the wider educated public.

As an academic library, CUHK Library works to inspire, inform, and support our university community and society in the broader sense.

It is a meaningful step towards making the insights of our experts available to a wider public, fostering mutual understanding, and addressing global challenges.

Being “open” means accessibility, receptiveness, transparency, and no restrictions. This initiative will certainly assist learners from different backgrounds to pursue knowledge on an equal basis. We hope to help drive the reach to corners of the world, and we will learn and adapt throughout this exciting journey.
