Summary:

From DeepL's English: "The problem of limited access to the texts of scientific journals and monographs continues to be one of the most urgent in modern science.  To date, several approaches to solving this problem have been developed: publishing in open access journals; placing preprints of articles in archival repositories; developing social networks for scientists; creating open online collections of scientific literature. While the use of open access scientific journals, archival repositories, and social media for sharing scientific papers continues to be limited, open scientific literature collections such as Sci-Hub and Library Genesis are proving to be a more effective solution in practice.  However, an obstacle to the full operation of such scientific portals in most countries is insufficiently developed intellectual property legislation that does not take into account the specificities of the scientific publishing process; as a result, instead of stimulating science and the arts, it becomes a brake on scientific progress. A necessary step towards solving this problem is the adoption of a new declaration on open access to scientific knowledge, which recognizes the free operation of scientific Internet libraries as legally legitimate."
