"As a concept and practice, open access has always been heavily debated; by open access advocates, but also by the wider academic community as part of the debate over the future of scholarly communication. From an initial subversive proposal (Harnad), open access has increasingly turned into accepted practice, promoted by governments, institutions and businesses alike. However, while growing in popularity, the struggle over its specific implementation in publishing and scholarly communication is ongoing and perhaps even more urgent than ever."
