We take advantage of this revolutionary opportunity when we make our work “open access”: digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. Open access is made possible by the Internet and copyright-holder consent, and many authors, musicians, filmmakers, and other creators who depend on royalties are understandably unwilling to give their consent. But for 350 years, scholars have written peer-reviewed journal articles for impact, not for money, and are free to consent to open access without losing revenue.In this concise introduction, Peter Suber tells us what open access is and isn't, how it benefits authors and readers of research, how we pay for it, how it avoids copyright problems, how it has moved from the periphery to the mainstream, and what its future may hold. Distilling a decade of Suber's influential writing and thinking about open access, this is the indispensable book on the subject for researchers, librarians, administrators, funders, publishers, and policy makers. 2019-01-17 23:55 2018-12-01 23:55:55 2019-01-21 11:56:52 2020-04-01T10:58:35Z 2020-04-01T10:58:35Z 2012 book 1004020 OCN: 795846161 9780262517638 http://library.oapen.org/handle/20.500.12657/26065 eng application/pdf n/a 1004020.pdf The MIT Press f49dea23-efb1-407d-8ac0-6ed2b5cb4b74 9780262517638 256 Cambridge open access
