| Freier Zugang zu öffentlich finanzierter Forschung (Open Access) Posted: 22 Feb 2012 06:42 AM PST www.dialog-ueber-deutschland.de A petition launched February 1, 2012, by Christian Reinboth. From Google's English: "Thus, the results of federally funded scientific research in Germany as many students, academics and other interested parties - both nationally and internationally - are available to the federal government should work for a consistent implementation of the Open Access principle of publicly funded research. This means that it will allow future scientists to a greater extent has to make in scientific journals, published research findings that have emerged from government-funded research, the interested public free of charge. The German tax payers are among the most generous supporters of scientific research worldwide and is entitled to expect to get free access to the results of research funded by them, so this insight in a particular case there be no significant reason." |

| Posted: 21 Feb 2012 02:27 PM PST Open and Shut?, (21 Feb 2012) "The BOAI called for all publicly-funded research articles to be made freely available on the Internet, and in such a way that any user could “read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself.” It also proposed two ways in which this objective could be met. First, by researchers self-archiving any papers they published in subscription journals on the Internet themselves (aka Green OA); second, by researchers opting to publish in open-access journals so that the publisher made their work freely availale online (aka Gold OA). Thus was born the open-access movement, and a decade of heated advocacy, joyful successes, and sometimes bitter disappointments. In the process, OA has become both the hottest and the most controversial topic within the world of scholarly publishing....Against this background, last week the Open Society Foundations once again gathered together a group of open-access advocates, along with a number of research funders, and asked them to agree on what they think needs to be done over the next ten years...." |
| Making Intellectual Property Work for Global Health Posted: 21 Feb 2012 02:09 PM PST www.harvardilj.org Abstract: Intellectual property rights (IPRs) are often conceived narrowly from the vantage point of offering incentives for private sector investment in research and development (R&D), but the legal regime of IPRs can also work to improve access to public goods for global health, particularly for those disadvantaged by destitution and disease. The WHO Global Strategy and Plan of Action on Public Health, Innovation and Intellectual Property (GSPOA), adopted by the World Health Assembly in 2008, calls for an “enhanced and sustainable basis for needs-driven, essential health research and development relevant to diseases that disproportionately affect developing countries.” How knowledge is generated, owned, and harnessed to support pro-poor development is at the heart of this effort. New approaches to tiering, pooling, and open-source collaboration have resulted from the struggle to deliver affordable treatments for AIDS and neglected diseases. In examining how intellectual property rights can most effectively and strategically support developing countries in implementing this ambitious and potentially catalytic agenda in enabling innovation for global health, this paper seeks to outline a coherent and strategic approach to address human development needs and to facilitate the harnessing of innovation and the sharing of knowledge for global health. |
| Enhanced Publications now possible with Open Journal Systems Posted: 21 Feb 2012 11:37 AM PST www.surffoundation.nl "The Internet makes it possible to present publications in combination with related research data, as Enhanced Publications. The Enhanced Journals…Made Easy project (EJME), which is funded by SURF, has designed a practical work process for publishers of Open Access journals so as to enhance academic journals with the associated data files. The project involved the development of two plug-ins for Open Journal Systems, a system for managing and publishing journals...." |
