Summary:
"Among the most important issues highlighted were: accessibility, trust and validation, changing publishing models, and open access and licensing.
The report also shows an increasingly failing system, with lack of goodwill between the different sectors: researchers are not getting (legal) access to the resources they need; publishers are being vilified (rightly or wrongly), and libraries are feeling increasingly powerless to provide the services their users require."
