U.S. research should be open access

,----[ Quote ]
| The Office of Science and Technology Policy 
| (OSTP) has launched a âpublic consultation on 
| Public Access Policyâ, to see if research 
| funded by U.S. grants should be made 
| available as open access results. I think 
| this is important â I believe publicly-funded 
| unclassified research should actually be made 
| available to the public.

Is open-access journal publishing a vanity publishing industry?

,----[ Quote ]
| Vanity journal domination is not occurring, nor is
| it likely to occur, among OA journals.  Vanity
| journal existence will and does happen among both OA
| and subscription-fee journals, but at least for OA
| journals is a benign phenomenon.  As subscription-
| fee journals more and more charge author-side fees,
| including hybrid open-access fees, one can only hope
| that the baseless vanity press recrimination against
| open-access journals will fade away.
