@jbrittholbrook Although I will say OA does provide more opps for more people to render abstruse research intelligible thru hard work about 16 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to jbrittholbrook
@jbrittholbrook It's a different part of the process. Mass public engagement on government site not the place for education about subtleties about 16 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to jbrittholbrook
@F1000 @Thejournalofmed Most major funders, and all large UK funders have made pub charges an allowable cost on grants for several years now about 16 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to F1000
@sjepstein That's fair. It's just often advanced to me as a reason why we can't do anything so I tend to react against it :-) about 17 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to sjepstein
@sjepstein There's something really worrying about a world in which we say "We can't do better on schol comms because it won't fit on a CV" about 17 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to sjepstein
@sjepstein They might actually have to judge quality of the work! Terrible thing I know. But srsly we've let CV issues drive this too long about 17 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to sjepstein

@ToriHerridge I have trenchant and unpopular opinions on that one but here's something interesting... plus.google.com/u/1/1099255239… about 17 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to ToriHerridge
@sjepstein But bottom line yes, I'd really like to see an environment in which there was much more experimentation than there is at moment about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to sjepstein
@sjepstein Why not strip out entirely separtly. Offer a review/validation service. Maybe I want PLoS Biol peer review but BMC dissemination? about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to sjepstein
@sjepstein Sure, but I would argue for disaggregating costs anyway. Then we get a proper market. Pay for validation & dissemination separtly about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to sjepstein
@sjepstein That's fair - its not a simple proposition I imagine. And quite a big jump to think about. about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to sjepstein
@ToriHerridge Oh sorry, yes if its a cite to a paper where you got data then that is fine. Problem comes if its "just" a dataset @rmounce about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to ToriHerridge
@ToriHerridge So you can provide a link but it doesn't really help anyone very much. @rmounce about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to ToriHerridge
@ToriHerridge Because those citations/links don't get counted in our standard systems. Ideally would contrib to std cite counts @rmounce about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to ToriHerridge
@rmounce Its something we need to get changed. It's on the list! But then need aggregators to handle data citations correctly @ToriHerridge about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to rmounce
@ToriHerridge And related, what is the responsibility going forward to ensure new data collections can more easily be re-used? #OADebate about 18 hours ago via TweetDeck in reply to ToriHerridge
.@irenehames @Villavelius Yes, should be more explicit. Use submission fees to cover the full cost of publication. No-one doing that yet? about 19 hours ago via TweetDeck
irenehames . @CameronNeylon @Villavelius This report on submission fees gives list of journals using them bit.ly/LyZkdR #OADebate about 19 hours ago via web in reply to CameronNeylon Retweeted by CameronNeylon
.@sjepstein Interested to know how it went down. Mostly I've heard fear of failure. But people forget that APCs were a leap of faith for BMC about 19 hours ago via TweetDeck
