5486 "journalists didn’t understand what they said, or unilaterally chose what "
5487 "aspect of a story to tell, putting out a version that these people felt was "
5488 "wrong or mischaracterized. Newspapers want to attract a mass "
5489 "audience. Scholars want to communicate serious news, findings, and "
5490 "insights. It’s not a perfect match. Universities are massive repositories of "

5492 "wall of their own making—there are the walled garden and ivory tower "

6319 "id=\"0\"/> Figure.NZ founder Lillian Grace said there are thousands of "
6320 "valuable and relevant data sets freely available to us right now, but most "
6321 "people don’t use them. She used to think this meant people didn’t care about "
6322 "being informed, but she’s come to see that she was wrong. Almost everyone "
6323 "wants to be informed about issues that matter—not only to them, but also to "
6324 "their families, their communities, their businesses, and their country. But "
6325 "there’s a big difference between availability and accessibility of "
6326 "information. Data is spread across thousands of sites and is held within "
6327 "databases and spreadsheets that require both time and skill to engage "
6328 "with. To use data when making a decision, you have to know what specific "
6329 "question to ask, identify a source that has collected the data, and "
6330 "manipulate complex tools to extract and visualize the information within the "
6331 "data set. Lillian established Figure.NZ to make data truly accessible to "
6332 "all, with a specific focus on New Zealand."

6706 "In 2008, Bloomsbury Academic, a new imprint of Bloomsbury Publishing in the "
6707 "United Kingdom, appointed her its founding publisher in London. As part of "
6708 "the launch, Frances convinced Bloomsbury to differentiate themselves by "
6709 "putting out monographs for free online under a Creative Commons license "
6710 "(BY-NC or BY-NC-ND, i.e., Attribution-NonCommercial or "
6711 "Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs). This was seen as risky, as the biggest "
6712 "cost for publishers is getting a book to the stage where it can be "
6713 "printed. If everyone read the online book for free, there would be no "
6714 "print-book sales at all, and the costs associated with getting the book to "
6715 "print would be lost. Surprisingly, Bloomsbury found that sales of the print "
6716 "versions of these books were 10 to 20 percent higher than normal. Frances "
6717 "found it intriguing that the Creative Commons–licensed free online book acts "
6718 "as a marketing vehicle for the print format."
