[GOAL] OA and scholarly publishers

[Richard Poynder]

Many thanks to Alicia Wise for starting a new conversation thread.

 

Let’s recall that Alicia’s question was, “what positive things are 
established
scholarly publishers doing to facilitate the various visions for open access and
future scholarly communications that should be encouraged, celebrated,
recognized?”

 

I am sure that Elsevier is keen to hear any suggestions for things it can do to
progress OA, but let’s not forget the other publishers too:  What are they 
doing
right, and what could they do better?

 

And wouldn’t it be great if other publishers started to share their thoughts
with us too? Surely it is time for the research community to enter into a public
dialogue with publishers? Who knows what benefits might follow?
