[Duraspace] Open Access Inspires New Publishing Models | Synapse

[Hilton Gibson]

“*I think that universities should consider publishing a cost of doing
business, just like electricity*,” he suggested. “If you don’t publish your
work, it’s just like not doing it. The institution is outsourcing one of
the critical functions of the faculty, which is scholarly publication of
the work. They outsource electricity to PG&E. They outsource water to
whatever it is. There’s a twin responsibility from the funder and the
institution that paid for that work, and it’s completely justified.”
