Diplomatie Science/Belgique | Joachim Huet, Victorine Hugot 31/03/17 : "À Bruxelles, une nouvelle catégorie de mineurs va tous les jours au charbon. Leur travail ? Extraire, comme il se doit, des matières premières dans des ressources brutes. À la différence que les mines qui les intéressent ne sont pas situées en sous-sol... Via Serge Meunier

I worked on a writing assignment regarding the cost of accessing publicly funded research articles when I was at the Banff Science Communications Program. One of the instructors told me that this issue had been covered quite extensively, so I did some research - and yes indeed, the issue was well-discussed in US and UK (mostly through the science sections of the New York Times and the Guardians), but there were very few mentions of it in Canada. This article reminds me how disappointed I was (and continue to be). Is there anything we can do to change the situation?
"The Globe and Mail doesn’t have a science section. Neither does the National Post. Add to this the fact that there are no dedicated Canadian science magazines for the general public, and it starts to become obvious why Canadians rarely hear about groundbreaking science research done across the country."

"Scientific Data to complement and promote public data repositories
Scientific Data will be a forum for publications about datasets, but will not be a repository for primary datasets. Primary data associated with Data Descriptors will be stored in one or more external data repositories. Why this distinction?
This strategy helps us draw some clear lines around the goals of Scientific Data. By ensuring that the primary datasets are stored in external systems, we make it crystal clear that our goal is to help authors publish content that promotes the scientific value and reusability of their datasets, not to control access to data. We feel that this is a progressive strategy that will help promote collaboration and data consolidation, rather than fragmentation" from source: http://blogs.nature.com/

This is an example of providing access to data & content. It presents a forum for authors to develop collaboration and data sharing rather than fragmenting research or keeping it embargoed. One result of such activities will be more rapid and wider dissemination of research to improve the knowledge base available to the scientific communities.
