In the case of Ibero-America, the limitations are
not just of a technological nature but also a lack of
knowledge of certain platforms. In the case of preprint
systems for publishing scientific research, less
than 7% of researchers that responded had used them,
significantly contrasting with the results of the physicists
involved in high energy studies that demonstrate a
high level of use of spaces such as arXiv (48.39%) or
SPIRES (41.94%), sites that do not require extra technical
knowledge. Additionally, given that at least half
of the researchers stated that they used open access
digital storage, it is evident that the existence of a specialist
storage site for communication would stimulate
their use of such tools.
