A similar service, arXiv[0], is used in other fields as well. In fact, the parent study that we're discussing was itself found on arXiv.
However, arXiv is (or aims to be) a supra-national organization. Do you think it is preferable to have an international standard repository for this knowledge like arXiv, a network of federated, national systems such as HAL, or both?
ArXiv has historically sometimes found itself hard-up for funding, so I think that a valid argument could be made for both approaches.

- toxik 6y agoFYI, arxiv is for the pre-prints, i.e. the papers as they are before peer review and publication in a proper journal. IEEE and friends hold the copyright to the articles after that, and generally do _not_ want you to publish "their" version. Which is strange, as you paid them to publish your article, that was likely paid for by state funding -- aka tax money. Ah, the academic racket is so beautiful.
