Taylor & Francis researcher survey 2019
Taylor & Francis,
Oct 29, 2019
I'm not sure how much I would trust a research report (24 page PDF) from Taylor & Francis on "researchers' views on the present and future of scholarly communication," because in my experience their articles are the most closed and difficult to access. Still, maybe they're listening to results that say things like "88% of researchers agree or strongly agree that there is value in anyone being able to access their work" and "researchers' least preferred publishing license is CC BY, the Creative Commons Attribution License. The publishing license with the highest number of first preferences is CC BY-NC-ND." But there's also a lot of massaging of the message (eg. "availability of open options is less important than other factors") and a narrow sample ("authors who had articles published in Taylor & Francis journals") which suggests that they're not yet ready to embrace open access.
