Publishing Friday, 11 June 2004, 15:00, Track 1 'Openness' and 'Freedom' in their various aspects are basic requirements for science to function at all. 'Freedom' in this perspective translates into open access to published results as well as into open access to primary data and processing methods. 'Open' may also be taken as a synonym of transparent, fair and efficient means for assuring quality as well as for assessing impact of scientific work. Traditional methods of scientific work, publication and self-organization have not always been sufficiently geared towards this overall objective of 'open' practice and this has resulted in what is today being regarded as a serious crisis in scientific communication and publication. This first Free Science panel is concerned with some of the strategies in the field of scientific communication and publication that aim at restoring the degree of 'openness' needed for making scientific work effective. An additional aspect of 'freedom' is the use of open, transparent technical means for scientific practice and publication as well as for providing access to results -- this aspect does not need to be explicitly covered within this particular panel, since it is an overspanning aspect of the WOS conference.

From January 1997, it was published by MDPI itself. Scientists would like to have high publicity for their scientific research results, and give away the scientific information for free. --> more Jean-Claude Guedon Professor of Comparative Literature at the University of Montreal Ensuring the creation of symbolic and institutional value in open access After a decade or so of debates, we understand the functions of scholarly journals much better. In particular, with the advent of digitization and networks, we realize more and more that journals are really validation mechanisms that select out the pieces of work entitled to enter the scientific or scholarly arena. --> more Stevan Harnad Canada Research Chair in Cognitive Science, University of Quebec/Montreal & Gründer des CogPrints Eprint-Archivs und der Eprint Selbstarchivierungs-Initiative, Southampton University The Green and Gold Roads to Open Access to Refereed Research The problem of journal pricing/affordability and the problem of article access/impact are not the same problem, the solution to the one is not the solution to the other, and it is a great mistake to treat them as if they were the same. --> more Discussion
