Open Access Part III: Whither Legal Scholarship?

Jan Novak, Associate Director jan.novak@law.csuohio.edu | February 07, 2007 - 11:01

"That's the old world. Nostalgia. Law review articles and treatises. Exclusive publication rights. Card catalogs. The Index of Legal Periodicals. Even things that were new, not so long ago, are now like familiar pieces of furniture. Academic press books and peer-reviewed journals. Westlaw and LexisNexis. JSTOR and HeinOnline. But the old world is giving way. Radical change is already upon us - a new world. Short form. Open Access. Disintermediation." Lawrence B. Solum, Download It While It's Hot; Open Access and Legal Scholarship, 10 Lexis and Clark Law Review 841, 853-4 (2006). Read University of Illinois College of Law Professor Solum's radical and entertaining vision of the future of legal scholarship at http://papers.ssm.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=957237 or listen to him deliver the message at http://lawlib.lclark.edu/podcast/index.php?s=open+access.
