Abstract
This panel, comprised of copyright and scholarly communication experts, will address an inherent contradiction in academic publishing: scholars want to share their work and need to obtain citation counts and other metrics provided by conglomerates such as Academia.edu and ResearchGate, but they often violate copyright restrictions when posting published work to these websites. The panel will discuss author’s rights and basic copyright rules, why academia.edu and ResearchGate have been labeled “predatory” by the panel, and how to combat predatory practices through knowledge of your rights, copyright negotiation with publishers, institutional repositories, and open access.
