".....Almost 11,000 researchers have signed up to a boycott of
journals<http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/blog/2012/apr/24/life-elsevier-open-access-scientific-knowledge>owned
by the huge academic publisher Elsevier. Subscriptions to the
thousands of research journals can cost a big university library millions
of pounds each year – costs that have started to bite as budgets are
squeezed. Harvard University, frustrated by the rising costs of journal
subscriptions, recently
encouraged<http://www.guardian.co.uk/science/2012/apr/24/harvard-university-journal-publishers-prices>its
faculty members to make their research freely available through open
access journals and to resign from publications that keep articles behind
paywalls."
