[GOAL] OA and scholarly publishers

[Richard Poynder]

Many thanks to Alicia Wise for starting a new conversation thread. 

 

Let's recall that Alicia's question was, "what positive things are
established scholarly publishers doing to facilitate the various visions for
open access and future scholarly communications that should be encouraged,
celebrated, recognized?"

 

I am sure that Elsevier is keen to hear any suggestions for things it can do
to progress OA, but let's not forget the other publishers too:  What are
they doing right, and what could they do better?

 

And wouldn't it be great if other publishers started to share their thoughts
with us too? Surely it is time for the research community to enter into a
public dialogue with publishers? Who knows what benefits might follow?
