Giving It Away: Sharing and the Future of Scholarly Communication | Planned Obsolescence - 2 views

  •  
    This piece articulates very nicely why a values-based approach to understanding the role of publication within public institutions makes a lot of sense. In 'giving it away' we increase, rather than lose, our ability to 'profit' from it, in the sense that is most relevant to the stated missions of the organizations whose functioning is necessary for its production.

  • At the Digital Scholarship Commons, we sought to be collaborative in developing digital projects, but we also found it difficult to conceptualize what that would mean within a humanities context that primarily favored individual scholarship.

Storm Clouds in Academic Publishing « PWxyz - 0 views

  • While closing UPs might, on one hand, mean a diminution of the number of outlets for scholarly work, it could just as easily be a more positive bellwether for a healthy shift in emphasis from one model of scholarly publishing to another.
