Metajournals: A federalist proposal for scholarly communication and data aggregation | Maria Chiara Pievatolo, May 14, 2013. Preprint. "Abstract: While the EU is building an open access infrastructure of archives (e.g.Openaire) and it is trying to implement it in the Horizon 2020 program, the gap between the tools and the human beings – researchers, citizen scientists, students, ordinary people – is still wide. The necessity to dictate open access publishing as a mandate for the EU funded research – ten years after the BOAI- is an obvious symptom of it: there is a chasm between the net and the public use of reason. To escalate the advancement and the reuse of research, we should federate the multitude of already existing open access journals in federal open overlay journals that receive their contents from the member journals and boost it with their aggregation power and their semantic web tools."
