Opening The Dissertation: Overcoming Cultural Calcification And Agoraphobia, Denise Troll Covey Dec 2012

Opening The Dissertation: Overcoming Cultural Calcification And Agoraphobia, Denise Troll Covey

Denise Troll Covey

This article places the struggle to open access to the dissertation in the context of the crisis in doctoral education and the transition from print to digital literacy. It explores the underlying cultural calcification and agoraphobia that deter engagement with openness. Solving the problems will require overhauling the curriculum and conventions of doctoral education. Opening access to dissertations is an important first step, but insufficient to end the crisis. Only opening other dimensions of the dissertation -- the structure, media, notion of authorship, and methods of assessment -- can foster the digital literacy needed to save PhD programs from extinction. …

Recruiting Content For The Institutional Repository: The Barriers Exceed The Benefits, Denise Troll Covey Dec 2010

Recruiting Content For The Institutional Repository: The Barriers Exceed The Benefits, Denise Troll Covey

Denise Troll Covey

Focus groups conducted at Carnegie Mellon reveal that what motivates many faculty to self-archive on a website or disciplinary repository will not motivate them to deposit their work in the institutional repository. Recruiting a critical mass of content for the institutional repository is contingent on increasing awareness, aligning deposit with existing workflows, and providing value-added services that meet needs not currently being met by other tools. Faculty share concerns about quality and the payoff for time invested in publishing and disseminating their work, but disagree about metrics for assessing quality, the merit of disseminating work prior to peer review, and …

The Ethics Of Open Access And Copyright Infringement, Denise Troll Covey Jan 2010

The Ethics Of Open Access And Copyright Infringement, Denise Troll Covey

Denise Troll Covey

This paper examines the movement to provide free online (open) access to scholarly journal articles as civil disobedience, a heretical challenge to the orthodox ideology of intellectual property law and the tradition of copyright transfer to a publisher. The legal standing and carefully crafted rhetoric of the heretical leaders enables them to rightfully proclaim that the goals of the open access (OA) movement can be achieved in compliance with U.S. copyright law while exposing conflicting values and problematic assumptions in the law that portend reform. Meanwhile, much of the work that the heretics have made available open access breaches publisher …
