This is the discussion thread for the lesson "Open Source and Open Access Publishing" (Research Methodology, Unit 5). Ask questions, share real-world examples, and help classmates who are stuck.
Conversation starters. Try explaining one of these in your own words:
- Distinguish the key open-source licence types and explain what each allows and restricts
- Explain the difference between gold, green, and diamond open access and the role of APCs
- Describe how preprint servers fit into the research publication lifecycle
