- •
We propose a model to assess social costs and benefits of research infrastructures.
- •
Benefits and costs are valued at the marginal production cost or willingness to pay.
- •
Knowledge creation and diffusion can be valued with bibliometric techniques.
- •
Some costs and benefits cancel out so that the RI in part pays for itself.
- •
Contingent valuation can be used to value the social preferences for scientific discovery.
