Finding the path : issues of access to research resources : summary of a conferance held at the National Academy of Sciences, January 27-28, 1999

"The National Academy of Sciences and the National Research Council held a meeting, "Finding the Path: Issues of Access to Research Resources", on January 27-28, 1999. As conference chair David Galas described it, the meeting was intended 'not to come to any sort of consensus or do an in-depth analysis of these issues, but rather to get the range of issues, as they exist today, on the table, to try to focus some of these issues, gather the opinion of the speakers, and be informed by the speakers about them, and then attempt to sharpen the focus by our discussion and, where it's possible, to interrelate the issues.' This summary of the conference has been divided into three chapters on material transfer agreements, on patents, and on data collection and informatics. These represent focal points to which are attached many important issues about the practices of stakeholders of research resources and the policies that shape their motivations."
