The open access wars: How to free science from academic paywalls - Vox


Description

2019 How librarians, pirates, and funders are liberating the world’s academic research from paywalls. Featuring Elaine Westworth, Aileen Fyfe, Theodora Bloom et al "What’s standing in the way of a full-on revolution? The culture of science.

They’re like the road workers who keep paying fees to build infrastructure they can’t freely access. Until that changes, the walls will remain firmly intact."
