Revolutionizing Scholarly Publishing – IO: In The Open
lkfitz's bookmarks 2016-07-16
Summary:
"For scholars truly interested in revolutionizing scholarly publishing, get involved with these efforts. Touch base with your scholarly communications experts and share your experience and expertise. Rather than attempting to “break down the master’s house” by stealing the master’s tools and giving them out for free, let’s work together to build our own tools.
And finally, speaking of houses, make certain that you begin the revolution in your own house. Publish your work in an open access journal or ensure that you post your manuscripts in an institutional or discipline repository. Negotiate your publishing agreements and fight for your rights as author so that you are able to do just that."
