Reed Elsevier allows academics free web access - Richard Wray, the Guardian
Reed Elsevier is allowing academics to put papers that have been accepted for publication in its print and online journals on to the internet, breaking with years of tradition and reigniting the debate over open access to academic thinking. Until now the world's largest academic publisher has been a staunch opponent of open access, saying it poses a threat to the quality of academic research. But it is now letting academics put a text version of their accepted articles on to their own websites, or sites operated by their institutions. The move could make the 200,000 articles Reed Elsevier publishes every year freely available on the internet.
