Open Access Research – Exploring Digial History Clare’s Way
lkfitz's bookmarks 2017-07-17
Summary:
"So, when I consider the dangers and opportunities of open access research, I am pretty evenly torn right now. I see the dangers of stealing others work, of losing credibility from poorly thought out ideas or badly researched theories, of trying to get publishers and others on board, and of all the ethical and practical quirks still to be worked out. I also agree with others who are excited about more collaboration, safer data storage, increased access to data and new opportunities. I guess for me a student, at this point in my career, I see open access as a tool to add to the ones I already use."
