More on whether gold OA support is premature Stevan Harnad, The Argument Against (Premature) Gold OA Support, Open Access Archivangelism, June 12, 2009. This is a relatively short excerpt from a long post. Those following the debate should read the whole thing. Excerpt:
Update (6/15/09). Also see (1) Stevan's discussion with David Prosser on this point, (2) his clarification on Michael Smith's blog, and (3) his new post arguing that "it is far more productive (of OA) for universities and funders to mandate Green OA than to fund Gold OA." Update (6/20/09). Also see Bill Hooker's comments on both Stevan Harnad's and Stuart Shieber's contributions in this debate. |
