openaccess research faculty

shared by Barbara Lindsey on 21 Feb 10 - Cached
  • Bernard Schutz, director of the Max Planck Institute for Gravitational Physics, in Potsdam, Germany, stressed how far the United States lags behind Europe and other parts of the world on the open-access frontier.
  • "I now believe that having public access to most scholarly communications is inevitable," said David Shulenburger, vice president for academic affairs at the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities. "Faculty are coming to understand, finally, that this has to happen if they're going to have the most scholarly opportunities to get things done."
  • The "killer app" of open access, Mr. Schutz said, would be something that gave researchers the means to dig past metadata and do full-text searches. "I want really useful tools that understand context to retrieve text intelligently, hunt down key equations, ensure completeness of bibliographies, help assess the real impact of a scientist's work," he said.
