This presentation by Sely M. S. Costa aims to provide a picture of the Brazilian initiatives with open access journals and conferences over the last four years using both Open Journal System (OJS) and Open Conference System (OCS) as their platform, respectively. Based on the study of the scholarly communication process and the impacts brought about by the use of information technologies, the paper focuses on the adoption of a national information policy concerned with the open access movement and implemented by the Brazilian Institute of Information on Science and Technology (Ibict afterwards).
