AAP Overview on Sci-Hub and Scholarly Publishing

lkfitz's bookmarks 2016-08-07

Summary:

"Sci-Hub is a pirate organization involved in the mass theft of copyrighted material. It should not be equated with any legitimate open access publishing practices, and its efforts have nothing to do with the real innovation going on in publishing to advance access to published material. There is nothing ingenious about its methods or its practices. Theft should not be promoted or celebrated."
