A few personal notes on the clamour around OA for books (written from the perspective of an author of 10 books that are all openly accessible): The REF mandate for books has been argued and trialed over an eight-year period, starting with the 2016 ‘Consultation on the second Research Excellence Framework’, published by the Higher Education Funding Council for England.

Retomando el hilo de la entrada anterior, en esta entrada explicaré cómo funcionan los botones función «+L[acuna]/A[bsentia]», «+F[olio]» y «Export wit[ness]» de ChrysoCollate.
