You mean, all these questions are to use this Open Access?
or any Open Access medium?

@rajasekharponakala Thank you for your question!

FOSTER Open Science is a fantastic resource which will inspire this kit, but in this case I was just referencing their definition of open access.

What I am looking for with this issue:

• What open access mediums are available? (For example, in astrophysics we use arXiv to publish preprints, so I will include a tutorial on how/why we do this in our community.)
• What topics should be covered under the Open Access umbrella of the toolkit? (For example, Green vs Gold open access, funding mandates, etc.)
• What barriers do you personally (or the community as a whole, generally) face to making your publications open access?
• What benefits have you personally experienced (or what are the benefits to science) by making your publications open access?
• Do you have any questions regarding open access?

I hope that was helpful! Please let me know if I can clarify this further :)
