In an example of how much open access may change scholarship, it was announced the Dead Sea Scrolls will be scanned in high resolution and made available online and open access.
As more primary sources are made available for study, scholarship will become more democratic. This will have both positive and negative aspects, but as with the greater availability of scientific studies, the primary result will be beneficial.
