OSR192 Marie Farge on her Vision of the Scholarly Publishing System #oscibar [EN]

This episode was recorded at the Barcamp Open Science 2020 in
Berlin but is not a summary of a session. Instead you can look
forward to a deeper discussion with Marie Farge in which she
presents her vision of the scholarly publishing system. In the
suggested szenario, journals are owned by their editorial boards
and are running on publicly funded infrastructure (classic platinum
Open Access) which ensure proper peer-review by the community of a
field. She also elaborates the important role of commercial
publisher which should run multidisciplinary journals for the
popularisation of science and the translation of new findings to a
broader public. Many of the ideas discussed are described in the
chapter Marie contributed to the European Commission's publication
Europe’s Future: Open Science, Open Innovation, and Open to the
World (edited by Carlos Moedas). A PDF-version of her chapter is
publically available.
