OA Week 2024: Community over Commercialization

As announced on the official page of the Open Access Week 2024, the call is to continue putting “Community over Commercialization” and prioritize approaches to open scholarship that serve the best interests of the public and the academic community.

EMBL is committed to providing open and unrestricted access to published research. In supporting EMBL researchers in fostering best Open Science practice, Szilárd Library provided more books on topics like Open Access, Open Data and Open Science.

Here is an overview of selected new titles, with a word from their authors, reviewers and publishers.

Philosophy of Open Science (Cambridge University Press 2023)

By Sabina Leonelli

After reviewing some of the concerns that have prompted calls for more openness, this book highlights how the interpretation of openness as the sharing of resources, so often encountered in OS initiatives and policies, may have the unwanted effect of constraining epistemic diversity and worsening epistemic injustice, resulting in unreliable and unethical scientific knowledge.
