Government grants should come with open access strings (un)attached.

  Why should taxpayers be funding the massive profits of Elsevier and others?
  • garmaine 8y ago
    Yes, that's the point, right?

      That is the point. Currently lots of research is taxpayer funded, and then published in closed journals where the people who paid to create it have to pay to read it. Elsevier are the only winner. Taxpayer funded research should be open access, and this could be stipulated in the grant itself.
