POLL
• Academics need to experiment more with digital tools and practices
• We still need authorship in academia• A book can also be a wiki• Piracy and plagiarism must remain taboo
• Access is more important than reuse• Academics need to reflect more on their own publishing practices
Discussion Points
• Can a wiki be a book?• Do living books form a challenge to our current
authorship functions?• Are their any inhibitions to editing a living or
liquid book?• What would re-use of materials in the humanities
entail?• Does open access challenge our notions of
copyright? • Do we need copyright in the humanities?
