If you're doing a startup trying to innovate in the research and academic journal space I'd love to talk to you.
Make contact with Alexandra Elbakyan. She clearly tries to bring innovation to the academic journal space (though not legal one).
- dougmccune 10y agoI emailed her to try to get her to speak (remotely) at a SAGE board meeting. Never heard back. I'd love to have her engage in a conversation with us.
- wolfgke 10y agoThis sounds fair. :-)
- dougmccune 10y agoConsidering she's being sued by Elsevier I don't fault her for not wanting to talk to any publishers. There probably isn't anything I can say that would convince her I'm not trying to entrap her in some way. But yeah, she's got an open invitation to an audience with the owners and upper management at SAGE, even if she just wanted to tell us off.
- dragandj 10y agoMaybe you did not offer a fair enough compensation for that service. She has lots of important work improving horrible state of scientific knowledge dissemination. I don't think she has much time for consulting private corporations, unless adequately compensated.
