Peter Murray-Rust, Open Data! A PPT presentation from the JISC Annual Meeting, April 12, 2005. A plea for OA to scientific data. Most data are not published along with the articles summarizing or analyzing them, and when they are, they are published in forms more useful for human scanning than machine processing. Scientists can and ought to change this by depositing their data files in OA repositories.

Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
