Open Access in the Humanities
02/05/09 | "Open-access publishing in serious, peer-reviewed online scholarly journals is one of the keys to solving a financial crisis that has afflicted university libraries everywhere and has had a chilling effect on virtually every academic discipline. Making scholarly work available without charge on the internet has offered hope for the natural sciences and now offers hope in the humanities."
-- Stephen Greenblatt, Harvard University

This panel will discuss the emergence and evolution of open access in the Humanities. Panelists will include John L. King, Professor and Vice Provost for Academic Information at the University of Michigan, whose recent work examines the effect of an epistemic infrastructure on access, information quality and social memory in our knowledge economy; Clifford Lynch, Director of the Coalition for Networked Information in Washington, D.C., whose perspectives on open access have had a strong influence on the present academic conscience; and John Willinsky, Professor at the Stanford University School of Education, whose interests have led him to a focus on the influence of scholarly publishing practices as a public resource for learning and deliberation. The panel will be moderated by Elizabeth Losh, Writing Director of Humanities Core at UC Irvine.
