"walled garden of academia" The walled garden of academia is not so fruitful as outsiders are led to think it is. We struggle year after year to pay salaries and still have money to buy the equipment and material we need for the projects, we don't have that much left to spend on buying access articles that we and our peers wrote and that we and our peers reviewed, all for free while some publisher makes millions on it.
