ACM SIGGRAPH hosted a moderated webinar discussion entitled ACM Open: Navigating the Open Access Publication Model with ACM Director of Publications Scott Delman and ACM Senior Member Jonathan Aldrich. The webinar was an opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of the intricacies of ACM OPEN. The speakers  discussed the open access model, publication tiering structures, the status of the transition to open access, the impact on ACM Digital Library, and the implications and benefits of Article Processing Charges (APC) for ACM SIGGRAPH authors and contributors. They also engaged in a Q&A session that addressed any additional concerns or questions from the audience.  ACM transitions to 100% Open Access in January 2026.
