Her latest book <a href=\"http:\/\/mitpress.mit.edu\/catalog\/item\/default.asp?ttype=2&amp;tid=11333\">Scholarship in the Digital Age<\/a>, was an indispensable resource for me when writing my Master\u2019s thesis on the Scholarly Communication System and Open Access.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">So I was really glad I found <a href=\"http:\/\/scholcomm.columbia.edu\/scholarship-digital-age-information-infrastructure-and-i\">this lecture<\/a> (which I can\u2019t embed, sorry) by Christine Borgman online, in which she discusses most of her main topics: cyberinfrastructure and e-science, Open Access, the data deluge, collaborations and intellectual property and the scholarly communication value chain. The lecture is entitled <em>Scholarship in the Digital Age: Information, Infrastructure, and the Internet<\/em>, and was delivered at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.columbia.edu\/\">Columbia University.<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">\u00a0I also found, via <a href=\"http:\/\/www.earlham.edu\/~peters\/fos\/2009\/06\/alma-swan-interview.html\">Open Access News<\/a>, this\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.talis.com\/xiphos\/2009\/06\/17\/alma-swan-talks-with-talis-about-the-open-access-movement\/\">podcast<\/a> with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.keyperspectives.co.uk\/aboutus\/aswan.html\">Alma Swan<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.keyperspectives.co.uk\/\">Key Perspectives<\/a> main consultant on Open Access, Scholarly Communication and Academic Publishing. In this <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.talis.com\/xiphos\/2009\/06\/17\/alma-swan-talks-with-talis-about-the-open-access-movement\/\">podcast<\/a>, conducted by Sara Bartlett from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.talis.com\/\">Talis<\/a>, she discusses amongst others the current state and difficulties concerning e-books or digital monographs in the Humanities and Social Sciences, the main subject of my current research for the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.oapen.org\/\">OAPEN<\/a> project. I especially like the way she recommends in the end that we need to stop the \u2018pillarization\u2019 in the Open Access focus, as OA journals, OA books and OA data are mainly targeted as separate issues by separate initiatives, whilst they need to be combined to create a truly interconnected collaborative scholarship.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:justify;\">Alma Swan also maintains a weblog, <a href=\"http:\/\/optimalscholarship.blogspot.com\/\">Optimal Scholarship<\/a> and has been interviewed before by <a href=\"http:\/\/www.richardpoynder.co.uk\/\">Richard Poynder<\/a>.
