An invitation to participate in a resource sharing research network, illustrated by pictures suggesting the childlike world of wonder that may be evoked by reading.

 

My name is Oluwatoyin Vincent Adepoju, founder and director of the one person research and publication system Compcros, constituting one of the  largest, single authored, open access body of texts in the world.

I am in the process of approaching scholarly publishers and scholarly archives for help in accessing their materials in the humanities on behalf of scholars and students in countries, such as Nigeria, where I live,  where access to such material is problematic on account of inadequate  library systems and weak currencies, making purchase of rights to such resources prohibitive.

                    

                                                                                                        

                                                     

I don't know if it will work but one has to try. I envisage such access, if provided, being enabled by a password shared by members of the network. Such networks are normally managed by academic institutions, so it's new territory for me.

If you would like to be a member of the network, do send me an email at toyin.adepoju@gmail.com stating your name, country of residence, your location within that country and your preferred contact email.
