🍿 scientists vs publishers Watching with great interest. Scientists are claiming, pubs are in a 3-part β€œscheme” to 1. Lower labor costs by agreeing not to compensate scholars for performing their peer review services; 2. Reduce competition by requiring scholars to submit their manuscripts to only one journal at a time; 3. Control access to scientific information by prohibiting scholars from freely sharing their research while their manuscripts are under peer review
My original #introduction was deleted so... I'm Sae Ra or MsMaryMac on other platforms. I'm a non-#librarian but a Manager of Library stuff by day and a volunteer of tech stuff by night. I'm trying to bring my Open Source-ness to the Australian Library tech scene. I'm always happy to chat about anything from Libraries to Cross Stitch to random excel tips n tricks.
