This presentation by Eric T. Meyer at the Higher Education Academy explores the increasing collaboration in scientific research and its implications for open access and self-archiving. Drawing on studies that highlight the growth of collaborative teams in knowledge production, the talk discusses how open access can enhance citation impact and accessibility for high-quality research. Meyer examines various publishing models and their economic implications, alongside measures for evaluating the impact of e-research across disciplines.
