This study attempts to observe the use, perception, and attitude of open access resources by the faculty members of Madurai Kamaraj University (MKU). A structured questionnaire was distributed among the faculty members at MKU. The study revealed that most of the faculty members were well-aware of open access resources. The majority of the faculty used open-access resources for their academic activities. The respondents’ perceptions and attitudes toward open access resources were also discussed in the study. Nearly half of the faculty members accepted the open access resources for their research and other activities. Awareness about open access resources is involved with journals, libraries, and books. The Shodhganga portal was given priority in the repository categories, the DOAJ portal was given priority in the journals category, and the InTechOpen portal was given priority in the books category. Proximity matrix analyses have been done to measure the relationships between faculty attitudes towards open access resources.
