Summary:
"In the complex world of scholarly publishing, discovery doesn’t always lead straight to access. That was the central problem behind the founding of GetFTR (Get Full Text Research), a service created to bridge the gap between discovery tools and authoritative, entitled access to the version-of-record. What started as a response to researcher frustration has grown into a widely used infrastructure helping to reduce friction, support research integrity, and foster a more trustworthy scholarly ecosystem.
To coincide with GetFTR’s fifth anniversary we interviewed representatives from each of GetFTR’s five founding publishers to find out how they feel about the GetFTR journey so far, and their hopes and predictions for the future."
