The paper raises some very important issues about the shape and structure of the future scholarly record, and about the importance of computational access to this record. See http://cra.org/crn/2016/03/3501/ for a little background and a pointer to the paper; a direct link to the white paper is http://cra.org/ccc/wp-content/uploads/sites/2/2016/02/Accelerating-Science-Whitepaper-CCC-Final2.pdf Clifford Lynch Director, CNI
