Session on reuse

Composite, non-editable figures represent a considerable barrier to reuse.

General points

• OA is just the beginning
• Open licenses allow for reuse
  • Explain why -NC harms dissemination
• Existing barriers:
  • Composite figures
  • Non-editable image file types
  • Multimedia relegated to supplement rather than embedded (issue: how to archive embedded content permanently?)
  • No preview for multimedia
  • Zip for supplement or PDF for article
  • No file name conventions
  • PMC does not provide MeSH terms
• Attribution stacking
