Abstract

The publishing system may be built into the DNA of academia, but academics can still make a change by putting pressure on publishers to kick back some profit to the very people who make research happen. Adding to the debate, Inger Mewburn talks the ethics of publishing, the costs to libraries, and why publishers need to be a bit more creative.
