Summary:
"Soon after Peter Murray-Rust had noted that Elsevier and RightsLink were selling permissions to re-use 'open access' content, he blogged about Springer and RightsLink doing the same thing too.
In August 2013, Peter wrote a blog post entitled Springer charge academics for using CC-NC 'Open Access' in lectures.
The price set by Springer and RightsLink to re-use 2 figures from a single 'open access' paper in classroom materials was an eye-watering $151.80.
The journal involved was Drugs in R&D. "
