I'd like to mention that some funding agencies and initiatives which have

In the end, there is no free lunch, and the lunch in academic publishing is
mostly paid by taxpayers via the work of researchers as authors, reviewers,
editors or consumers of publications.

Hi Larry,
An Open Access journal must not necessarily be funded by author fees, but can
also be covered by institutional funding (universities, research institution,
charities, funders ...) without any cost for the authors. That is the

Dear all,
please find attached a policy paper on the Open Access Policy of the Austrian

(www.ulrichsweb.com/) which currently lists 25.992 active and
refereed journals from all disciplinary fields. If you
Is anybody aware of recent valid empirical studies on monographes in science
and humanities and open access? For example, does open access increase or
decrease sales figures of hardcopy mongraphes?
