"Alternative Models of Scholarly Communication: The 'Toddler Years' for Open Access Journals and Institutional Repositories"
Two prominent - and promising - alternatives emerging in the scholarly communication realm are open access journals and institutional repositories. This session focuses on (1) why the academy is increasingly moving into the aggregation and dissemination of scholarship generally, and toward open access journals and institutional repositories specifically; (2) what decisions, challenges, and opportunities the academy faces in seeking to create change within scholarly communication; (3) how various projects have confronted these issues; and (4) the early results of these efforts. Among the underlying themes that will also be addressed are the serials budget crisis, the benefits and drawbacks of electronic publishing, whether open access truly equals free, and the extent to which the university library should step into a publishing role. Both a broad topography and a specific case study will be presented.
