Summary:

Researchers looking for academic or scientific articles on the Internet are increasingly able to access those articles free. While big commercial publishers have tightened their grip on online academic journals in recent years, charging high prices for essential articles, a movement supporting the wider availability of research results—called the open-access initiative—has been gaining strength, making many scholarly publications available to readers free of charge.
