dc.description.abstractAcademics have (largely) come to understand that their work being online is necessary. The online space provides an environment where work can be shared and read as well as being a platform through which it can reach those who need it. This first step of sharing highlights the need for the work to be discoverable - if an article is online but no-one can find it, it has not really been shared. To extend this, even if your work is online and discoverable, do you know if it is accessible? As a part of the online presence work that we at OpenUCT have been doing with UCT academics, we had a look at the number of articles that appear in the top ten Google scholar search results when searching for the scholarly work of 16 UCT academic staff members in a variety of disciplines. This is what we found.en_ZA
