How do we peer review non-orthodox academic research?

What do these new digital formats mean for authorship, authenticity and preservation? For reception and impact? For academic career progression? How do they link to the ‘open data’ movement?

The aim of this invited roundtable was to develop a position paper in the context of the UK academic funding landscape. Does non-orthodox academic activity matter?
