Author-paid publication fees corrupt science and should be abandoned
Author-paid publication fees corrupt science and should be abandoned
Author-paid publication fees, often associated with so-called “gold” open access journals, lead to the corruption of science by incentivizing the publication of low-quality research and exacerbate inequalities between institutions that are prestigious and well-funded and those that are less so. The authors recommend a total abandonment of author-paid publication fees for academic research, the publication of which is typically a public good yet serves to enrich publishers while degrading research outputs.
Sharing Insights on Interoperability and Linked Data in Heritage and Research Contexts: Building Bridges Across Disciplines
Sharing Insights on Interoperability and Linked Data in Heritage and Research Contexts: Building Bridges Across Disciplines
Interoperability may sound technical, but at its heart, it’s about connection - helping data, systems, and people work together more effectively. In both heritage and research, it’s what transforms scattered collections into shared knowledge. Maryam Mazaheri illustrates common misconceptions around interoperability and describes what lessons can be derived.
