The main funding agency in my country is starting to demand that we publish in open-access journals. It seems like a wonderful thing, except for one little detail: the agency is not supplying any extra funding. The difference in cost between conventional and open-access grants is a significant fraction of the typical grant. Are researchers expected to publish less frequently, or to reduce students stipends?
