The big question
How can we get the researcher to engage with all of this?
‘Most academics are failing to adopt the principle of open access, according to Stephen Curry, a structural biologist at Imperial
College London and campaigner for open access. He says the RCUK
policy may not be forcing enough academics to change their behaviour to publish more work—but the inclusion of open-access requirements in the next Research Excellence Framework certainly
will. “Every single university in the country is going to make sure their submissions are REF-compliant,” he says. “The REF grabs everybody
by the balls.”’ Research Fortnight, 11 June 2014http://www.researchresearch.com/index.php?
