Lessig At CERN: Scientific Knowledge Should Not Be Reserved For Academic Elite; Intellectual Property Watch, 4/19/11

Catherine Saez, Intellectual Property Watch; Lessig At CERN: Scientific Knowledge Should Not Be Reserved For Academic Elite:

"Free culture leader and Harvard University law professor Larry Lessig was at the European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) yesterday to talk about access to scientific knowledge on the internet. In the symbolic place where the World Wide Web was invented and where scientists are now trying to unravel the creation of the universe, Lessig praised CERN’s open access initiative and in this temple of reasoning, said the copyright architecture was on the edge of absurdity."
