Explore how we can make publicly funded academic research more accessible to the public to help them stay educated and informed.
--
In the US, your taxes fund academic research at public universities. Why then do you need to pay expensive, for-profit journals for the results of that research? Erica Stone advocates for a new, open-access relationship between the public and scholars, making the case that academics should publish in more accessible media to help the public be well-educated and well-informed.
