Overcoming barriers: access to research information | Research Information Network - 1 views

  •  
    "Overcoming barriers: access to research information" a Research Information Network report
  •  
    This report points out a major issue for researchers: it is often easy to FIND the content they need (through Web of Science or Google or PubMed) but it is difficult to ACCESS it. "The content is not available online (either through failure to be digitised or lack of licence purchasing) and licences for online content are seen to be too complex and sometimes restrictive of access for non-members of institutions; and institutions lack the technical and administrative capacity to overcome these issues."

Toward a New Alexandria - 1 views

  •  
    "Do we have the generosity to collaborate? Can we build legal, organizational, and financial structures that will preserve and order-but also share and disseminate the learning of the world? Scholars have traditionally gated and protected knowledge, yet also shared and distributed it in libraries, schools, and universities. We have stood for a republic of learning that is wider than the ivory tower, and now is the time to do so again. We must stand up, as the Swedes say, for folkbildningsidealet, that profoundly democratic vision of universal learning and education."
