Transforming Scholarly Communication & Publishing
The scholarly communication and publishing system is becoming limited in its ability to provide faculty, researchers and students with access to needed research materials.
- Economically unsustainable for libraries
Escalating costs of research materials have seriously diminished the purchasing power of libraries. - Restrictive business & licensing practices from publishers
At a time when digital access should enable researchers to maximize the reach and impact of their research results, the restrictive business and licensing practices of many publishers have placed constraints on openly sharing them.
Take Action — Faculty & Researchers
Faculty, researchers and their universities must take action to regain control of the scholarly communication and publishing system.
