How does a collectively shared, not-for-profit platform like The COVE (at http:// covecollective.org) change the way that we produce knowledge for dissemination to others? Our argument here is that The COVE instantiates a radically different approach to knowledge production, one that has the potential to escape some of the pitfalls of our current reliance on the internet for knowledge dissemination. That reliance has been shaped in ways that could not easily have been anticipated when the internet entered the public imaginary (and our everyday practices) circa 1996. We will lay out in the first part of this essay the ways that the original promise of the internet has been increasingly turned against the goals of scholarly investigation before illustrating how The COVE reimagines our approach to knowledge production by reclaiming the means of production for collective re-use
