  1. The Librarian 🌷 (thelibrarian)'s status on Friday, 01-Dec-2017 18:50:07 CET The Librarian 🌷 The Librarian 🌷

    β€œIn short, we are getting fleeced. The major scientific publishers enjoy profit margins in excess of 30 percent. Such profits are stratospheric, well over the average for every business sector of the Fortune 500. Publishers are getting rich on the backs of underfunded academic libraries and the unpaid labor of academics who serve as editors, reviewers, and authors. That system is unsustainable.” – Suarez & McGlynn, The Fallacy of Open-Access Publication, Chronicle of Higher Ed., Nov. 15, 2017
