State Public Records Acts: The Need to Exempt Scientific Research Belonging to State Universities from Indiscriminate Public Disclosure.

Weber, Kenneth A.

Journal of College and University Law, v10 n2 p129-46 Fall 1983-84

Public access to scientific research obtained by faculty employed at state universities, it is suggested, should be restricted until proprietary rights have been secured. Public access to a state university's research denies that institution a proprietary right, and severely discourages the promotion of high quality basic research. (MLW)
