"At first sight it would appear that making published articlesavailable for anyone to read worldwide at no cost (OpenAccess) would be an asset to all authors, but some claim thatauthors from less-affluent institutions would not benefit. Thisis the premise debated in this month’s Point/Counterpoint."
