FreeCulture students talk to the AAP William Walsh, Who listens to FreeCulture.org and their 'radical' agenda? The AAP/PSP, for starters, Issues in Scholarly Communication, February 9, 2007. Excerpt:
Comment. I commend the AAP/PSP for inviting students to give their perspectives and I commend Laroia for a straight answer to a curve-ball question. The questioner was assuming that all high-prestige journals are TA and always will be. Laroia saw through that, which even many publishing scholars fail to do. I'd only add that publishing in a high-prestige TA journal is almost always compatible with OA archiving. About 70% of TA journals give blanket permission for OA archiving, eliminating any need to worry about trade-offs. |
