Public Knowledge at Stanford
Could Stanford do more to share what it learns with the world?
The Public Knowledge Project is a key player in a world-wide open access movement that would make scholarship no longer a matter of privileged access but part of a public right to know. With the appointment of PKP’s director John Willinsky to a professorship in Stanford’s School of Education, this project has found a new home at our lab, reflecting ongoing commitment to new ways of producing and presenting knowledge.
Public Knowledge at Stanford could be of interest if you are:
- Thinking about starting a journal, or making an existing one more widely available?
- Involved in running a conference?
- Looking for ways of strengthening research capacities and cultures in institutions abroad?
Over the last decade the Public Knowledge Project has been increasing the scholarly and public quality of research through the use of new online technologies. It has developed the following open source software projects:
- Open Journal Systems, the most widely used open source software for the management and publishing of journals
- Open Conference Systems for the running of conferences
Through Public Knowledge at Stanford, faculty and students will have the opportunity to utilize (at no cost) PKP’s open source systems to host and manage journals and conferences in which they are involved, with the goal of making more of this work publicly and globally available.
As well, the Public Knowledge Project welcomes collaborations with partners from across campus in devising new ways of publishing of monographs, exhibition catalogues, archives that enable more of this work to be made publicly available online, in ways that increase the public reach and scholarly value of the work that is associated with this university. PKP has a strong record of funded research and development initiatives through just such partnerships. PKP will continue to conduct research on the impact of this new access to knowledge, as well as support the strengthening of scholarly publishing in developing countries through its initiatives in Africa, Latin American and South-East Asia.
