This publication by COMMUNIA, Centrum Cyfrowe, Wikimedia Sverige and the Intellectual Property Law Institute intends to demonstrate some of the problems that EU researchers face due to the lack of exceptions to access research resources remotely and to share research results and underlying resources for purposes of verification and dissemination. It assembles a selection of interviews, edited by Teresa Nobre, Maria Drabczyk, Eric Luth, Deborah De Angelis, and Maja Bogataj Jančič, to understand the challenges with joint and cross-border collaborations.
