Science writer in residence assesses science publishing (Oct. 20, 2011) Posted: 20 Oct 2011 11:55 AM PDT www.news.wisc.edu "Scientific journals aimed at professional audiences are more of a special case in that their audiences are a little more captive to whatever the publishers have wanted to do, which is why journal prices have been allowed to climb to the terrifying levels that they have. But nowadays, traditional journals face ever more pressure from open access journals, which operate under different models and have shed the high costs to their readers, and from other types of open discussion. All of this obviously points to some crises afflicting science publishing. And yet, I'm not entirely discouraged by these facts because all the problems related to new avenues for science getting out to audiences, too. So in many respects, it's a golden age for science publishing—it's just a rotten era for science publishers and those employed by them...." |

E-science and Academic Libraries Bibliography Posted: 20 Oct 2011 08:36 AM PDT A new bibliography from Charles W. Bailey, Jr. "The E-science and Academic Libraries Bibliography includes English-language articles, books, editorials, and technical reports that are useful in understanding the broad role of academic libraries in e-science efforts. The scope of this brief selective bibliography is narrow, and it does not cover data curation and research data management issues in libraries in general. It does not include conference papers, digital media works (such as MP3 files), e-mail messages, interviews, letters to the editor, news articles, presentation slides or transcripts, unpublished e-prints, or weblog postings. Most sources have been published from 2007 through October 18, 2011; however, a limited number of key sources published prior to 2007 are also included...." |
