What is Access Lab?

Access Lab is OpenAthens’ international conference, which takes place each year. Over the past seven years, libraries, providers and library users have met at our annual event to discuss challenges facing the information industry. The conference explores industry developments, provides real life case studies and holds topical panel discussions where you get the chance to ask the questions.

If you’re not sure what to expect, watch our 2024 Access Lab recordings and view our Access Lab resource hub.

Who can attend Access Lab?

Access Lab will be of interest to librarians, learners, researchers, and to providers of digital content and services. Job titles might include: librarian/information manager, product manager, IT manager, researcher, and individuals with an interest in access to knowledge.

“I felt that every session was good and I learned a great deal. I will be having some conversations with my IT department on future authentication processes and might even come across as I know something!”
