Reducing Stereotyping Through Mindfulness: Effects on… : DASH Story 2016-03-22
Story content
I am a retired professor. I still try to be active in doing my own research and writing professional articles, blogs, and sharing information with my clients. I have my own company for women's leadership development. Since I am no longer affiliated with an academic institution I cannot get access to scholarly databases to access good research. The small community libraries where I live do not have these databases available. As an alumnus of Research I institutions, I do not have access to those databases either. Since I do not hold an "emeritus" status after retirement, I do not have access to the databases at the universities where I taught. Therefore, I am "stuck" with what I can find on the Internet and I know I am missing good research to support my continuing work in women's leadership development. The fees the publishers charge for access to an online article are outrageous and something I cannot afford. Knowledge should not be selectively limited in this way. It hurts the individual, the community, and the society as a whole. THANK YOU for DASH. This truly is action that supports social justice and equality.
