[GOAL] Re: Speech by Dutch junior minister in Berlin

Amsciforum 2014-01-29

Summary:

(1) Dekker has said exactly the same things before; 
(2) the rest of the EU (with the exception of the UK's Finch committee) and all the rest of the world sees things differently, and Dekker is trying to persuade them to see things his way; 
(3) Dekker's way is to prefer a policy of providing open access to Netherlands peer-reviewed journal articles through paying extra to publish them in Gold OA journals rather than a policy of providing open access to Netherlands peer-reviewed journal articles at no extra cost through Green OA self-archiving while the publication costs for all uncancellable subscription journals are still being paid in full by Netherlands and the rest of the world; 
(4) Dekker apparently misunderstands how peer-reviewed journal articles that are on the internet are searched and found; 
(5) Dekker apparently misunderstands that all peer-reviewed journal articles are peer-reviewed, whether Gold or Green.
