Should be a great Conference. Love the forum, too!
R2R is having some email issues, around 13-15 February, with quite a lot of emails sent from [email protected] or [email protected] ending up in 'spam' folders. Apparently this is something to do with a DMRAC record, whatever that is. We are working on a fix.
R2R 2024 begins with a Keynote by Antonia Seymour.
There will be 'roving microphones' for all Q&A opportunities. Or you can put something in the forum chat.
Re-Xing - is that a thing?
Now tow talks on 'Local OA' - one 'local' to a discipline, one 'local' to a geographical area.
Kamran Naim is talking about the SCOAP3 model; roughly: ‘keep subscription money to pay publishers to publish OA’. Tomorrow morning there will be a panel, partly discussing, roughly: ‘‘keep subscription money in the academy and build institutional repositories'.
No questions about SCOAP3???
The slides will be posted on the website over the next few days, and videos available in a couple of months ('Green OA').
Sorry about the voting problems at the start of the debate. Over 50 people managed to log in and about 40 voted in the end.
Unfortunately many of you were prevented from logging in due to the Forum security settings.

In the end the votes (in the room) were For: 8 Against: about 130 for both the Before and After. So a tie!
