N2  - The advent of the internet and digital technologies has enabled information to be accessed and disseminated far more easily than ever before. Technological developments have swept away a whole range of restrictions that in earlier times impeded or prevented open access to knowledge, such as geographical barriers, time restrictions, delays in distribution of physical materials and barriers that limited the range of sources accessible by any one individual. Improved access to information benefits researchers by enabling them to study their field more broadly, reducing the amount of duplicative research, and assisting in the production of better informed - and therefore better quality - research. For these reasons, the open access movement aims to promote the dissemination of knowledge broadly and freely across the internet in a timely fashion
