I spent 10 years trying to be an independent scholar while working outside of academia. Papers/presentations I produced: zero. Not enough energy and definitely not enough money. Happy to be back in academia at last, even as a staff librarian.

βAt the heart of the problem is a lack of money, infrastructure and expertise to archive digital resources.β
I think thereβs plenty of expertiseβjust no money to pay the experts a living wage.
