# Reusing Open Access materials on Wikimedia projects

The video describes how scholarly articles that are available under an open license can be reused on Wikimedia projects, and how readers can be made aware of that reusability.

For further information, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WP:OPENACCESS .

The video was produced by The Cinematic Syndicate, with contributions from Max Klein (starring, voice, story), Matt Senate (story) and Daniel Mietchen (story).
