Jop de Vrieze, Science; Open-access journal editors resign after alleged pressure to publish mediocre papers
[Kip Currier: Post #3,500, in 11 years of blogging about IP and "Open" Movements on this site.]
"The conflict is salient because this week 11 European national funding
organizations announced that beginning in 2020, research they fund should only be published in open-access journals,
which make articles publicly available, as opposed to traditional
journals, which sometimes block access to nonsubscribers. To maintain a
level of quality, scientists will be directed to publish only in
journals in the Directory of Open Access Journals."
Issues and developments related to Intellectual Property (e.g. Copyright, Fair Use, Patents, Trademarks, Trade Secrets) and Open Movements (e.g. Open Access, Open Data, Open Educational Resources (OER)), examined in the "Intellectual Property and Open Movements" and "Ethics of Data, Information, and Emerging Technologies" graduate courses I teach at the University of Pittsburgh School of Computing and Information. -- Kip Currier, PhD, JD
