This week we discuss The Paywall Movie with Professor Jason Schmitt, chair of communication and Media at Clarkson University. We talk about academic publishing, the problems of the current system and more.
In 2018, UK universities spent over £210 million on publication costs (access etc). This could have paid for; 700 ECR fellowships or 6500 postdocs or >8500 technicians or 3,500 PhDs (4yr fees + stipend). Meanwhile, Elsevier had profit margins of 37%. This week we discuss the broken publishing system and Jason’s documentary - The Paywall Movie; the business of scholarship.
