A major report finds "no evidence to suggest that 'tech-savvy' young graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, or assistant professors are bucking traditional publishing practices." Instead, it says, "Established scholars seem to exercise significantly more freedom in the choice of publication outlet than their untenured colleagues." Moreover, "Mechanisms for judging non-text and non-traditional scholarship (e.g., databases, cell lines, curated collections, websites, etc.) exist in all of the academic institutions we surveyed," however these are counted not as scholarship but rather as "service' or "teaching" (the same is true at NRC).
