A CRITIQUE OF SCHOLARLY PUBLISHING AND A NEW "MODEL"

Publishing model: argues for complementarity of review journal articles and preprints; do the points extend to cognitive science literature?

"arXiv and the Symbiosis of Physics Preprints and Journal Review Articles"

"Given the considerable barriers that its realization in pristine form faces, the model aspires merely to be a heuristic or guidepost. It provides an analytical framework for criticizing aspects of the current publishing ecosystem, helps diagnose problems in current efforts to reform it, including those emanating from the open access movement, and raises consciousness about certain emphases that could gradually enrich scholarly publishing. "
