   Jumping the Paywall: How to freely share research

   This workshop will identify and address two safety-critical problems
   permeating research today: lack of total free access to scholarship,
   and the looming threat of apprehension for trying to facilitate said
   free access.

   The workshop will hypothesize workable solutions to the stated problem
   sets by presenting actionable intelligence and investigating tactical
   modes of engagement in the on-going copyfight via the exploration of
   securing free access to scholarship (in the form of academic e-journal
   articles and e-books), and via developing avoidance strategies to
   forego existent and emergent threats of apprehension resulting from
   participation in the practices of free access.

   Topics covered will include:

   --> Content access procurement
   --> Operational security during field deployment
   --> Watermark, metadata and content-protection identification and
   removal
   --> Content distribution


   Huh?
   Ever try to view a journal article only to slam into an extortionate
   paywall? Then you should stop by.
