Summarization
The Internet Archive is being recognized as a real library by advocates and supporters despite the current lawsuit from publishers. On March 28th, historian Peter Baldwin will be discussing the open access movement with Chris Bourg. Many academic authors are paying thousands of dollars to make their work available for free, and publishers are seen as attempting to monetize post first-sale transactions. The Internet Archive has physical volumes and a variety of ways for users to engage with their premises, with one location in San Francisco. There is controversy over the value of libraries and the access to information they provide, with some arguing that it should come at a cost.
Topic Modeling
- The Internet Archive as a library
- The open access movement and its history
- The role and value of physical libraries
- The monetization of post first-sale transactions and the publishing industry
- Pedagogical outcomes and the value of measuring them

They’ve turned what should have been a force for public good (the Open Access movement) into yet another source of revenue to squeeze out of universities. | 1 |
