What copyright was
Article 1, Section 8 of the US constitution says,
“To promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts, by securing for limited Times to Authors and Inventors the exclusive Right to their respective Writings and Discoveries.”
This is the basis of modern copyright, patent, and intellectual property principals and law.

The Science Commons
http://sciencecommons.org “Science Commons has three interlocking
initiatives designed to accelerate the research cycle — the continuous production and reuse of knowledge that is at the heart of the scientific method. Together, they form the building blocks of a new collaborative infrastructure to make scientific discovery easier by design.”
