With Friends Like This OA Needs No Enemies
Amsciforum 2013-09-16
Summary:
We have
been objecting vehemently to the perverse incentive Finch/RCUK have given
publishers to adopt or lengthen Green OA embargoes and offer hybrid Gold in
order to get the money the UK has foolishly elected to throw at Fool's Gold
unilaterally, and preferentially.
Now is it going to be the library community publicly notifying putting
publishers on notice that unless they adopt or lengthen Green OA embargoes,
libraries plan to cancel their journals?
