Abstract

This report looks at the scope of current OA practice and the opportunities it offers for innovation in scholarly communication methods. Among the questions it discusses are:
• Why are some researchers still reluctant to embrace open access?
• What kinds of "added value" in scholarly communication can be attached to open access?
• What is the significance for scholarly communications practice of the growth of social networking/reference management systems such as Mendeley?
