"As a student, I highly appreciate that papers are freely accessible to everyone. This is what we are supposed to do with knowledge – share it – thus research is imperatively a collective enterprise. I am trying to deepen my knowledge in this topic to understand whether I want to make it the object of my master's thesis.'The Open Access Collection of DSpace@MIT includes scholarly articles by MIT-affiliated authors made available through open access policies at MIT or publisher agreements.

Each month we highlight the month’s download numbers and a few of the most-downloaded articles in the collection, and we feature stats and comments from a particular country.
