As noted by our own @abugseye, "Open Science By Design: Realizing a Vision for 21st Century Research" available at http://sites.nationalacademies.org/pga/brdi/open_science_enterprise/index.htm
Nettie Lagace also tweeted out an associated photograph of a speaker's slides that outline the benefits and motivation of Open Science. Those include:
- Rigor and Reliability
- Ability to address new questions
- Faster and more inclusive dissemination of knowledge
- Broader participation in research
- Effective use of resources
- Improved performance of research tasks
- Open publication for public benefit.
