Notes:

Questions about access to scholarship go back farther than recent debates over subscription prices, rights, and electronic archives suggest. In The Access Principle, John Willinsky describes the latest chapter in this ongoing story -- online open access publishing by scholarly journals -- and makes a case for open access as a public good.
