(post)junkification And The Power Of Bibliodiversity
Authors : Brabazon Tara .
Abstract
Junkification is a word used to describe the proliferation of low quality digital materials. A recent peer-reviewed article has applied this term to academic publishing. Yet once more, these researchers summon the ideological confluence between open access and predatory journals. This inelegant assumption reifies the capacity of refereed research to circulate beyond paid subscriptions and high ‘author processing fees.’ Noting the corporatization of academic publishing, this article demonstrates the power of bibliodiversity, and the necessity to separate the word ‘predatory’ from the rigorous, transparent processes of refereed articles in diamond open access journals.
