Rezension zu: Lambert Heller (20. September 2009): Green Road 2.0 – eine leise Revolution von Mendeley und Researchgate?. In: Biblionik. Zur Revolutionierung von Bibliothek und Wissensorganisation durch das Internet
Sie predigen anderen Wasser und trinken Wein. Vorne hui, hinten pfui. Die deutschen Bibliotheken spielen sich auf der Bühne als Anwälte des frei zugänglichen wissenschaftlichen Wissens im Interesse ihrer Benutzer auf, aber hinter den Kulissen agieren sie gegen Open Access (OA), wenn ihre eigenen Interessen tangiert sind, oder sie ignorieren die Bedürfnisse ihrer Kunden.
