- Abstract
- Imagine a world in which every single person is given free access not just to the sum of all human knowledge, but to its parts as well.

This presentation will address the relationship between Wikipedia and the open access movement, as well as detail recent developments in the infrastructure of scholarly publishing and its implication for Wikipedia and Wikipedians, particularly as it relates to the gender gap and other efforts to increase the representation of marginalized peoples.
