What are some long-term solutions to the general scholarly communications problem and what can faculty do to help?

0

Scholarly communication encompasses such complex issues as journal pricing and author rights, and the Libraries has assembled information to help faculty become and stay informed [for example, see relevant pages on the Libraries Website and on HealthLinks.] Controlling journal price increases is probably the single most critical issue facing library budgets worldwide, and faculty can help by publishing in moderately-priced journals, working with editorial boards to minimize publisher price increases, and by submitting their work to disciplinary repositories like PubMed Central and the UW Libraries’ ResearchWorks repository.
