Publishers and societies take action against Research Gate’s copyright infringements
Following unsuccessful attempts to jointly find ways for
scholarly collaboration network ResearchGate to run its service in a
copyright-compliant way, a coalition of information analytics
businesses, publishers and societies is now left with no other choice
but to take formal steps to remedy the illicit hosting of millions of
subscription articles on the ResearchGate site.
Exchanging research and collaborating has been an
integral part of academic work for centuries. Today, cooperation across
geographic boundaries and disciplines has become easier than ever with
online tools making connections in real-time, opening up infinite ways
for breakthrough discoveries. These are true achievements and publishers
of academic research welcome them and have helped to facilitate them.
