Description

The scholarly communication environment has become increasingly complex and effective in recent years. This overview examines the current landscape of journal and book publishing, rights law, emerging access models, digital archiving, university presses, book details, and more. Rick Anderson discusses the problems that arise due to conflicts between values such as the public good, academic freedom, the advancement of science, and efficient use of limited resources. The implications of these issues extend far beyond academia, affecting our everyday lives in ways we may not realize. Organized in a question-and-answer format, this book provides a summary of important issues and developments in scholarly communication, making it an accessible resource for understanding the current state of affairs in this rapidly evolving field.
