Newsletter Democratization of Scientific and Technical Information

The democratization of many social activities, which happens around us daily, has not made a significant impact on the world of STI. This is particularly evident in the traditional ways and forms of creating, distributing, accessing, and using information. STI is still operating in an old paradigm. Free, uninhibited access to STI and to the results of scientific research and technological advancements are necessary for the world to overcome current challenges and problems.
