Stuart Lawson
Birkbeck, University of London Doctoral Researcher
Edinburgh, Scotland
I'm a student, early career researcher, and radical librarian working on the politics and economics of open access – with an emphasis on social justice. I’ve released a lot of open data about academic publishing costs and I'm currently studying for a PhD about open access policy (see http://stuartlawson.org/phd/ for early drafts). I’ve worked in a library as a repository administrator and at a national library consortium working on journal license negotiations. I’m also a founding editor of Journal of Radical Librarianship, started the LIS open access declaration, and worked as the Open Scholarship Community Liaison for Wikimania 2014.
