SUMMARY:Open Access: Who Takes the Plunge? | Discussion by Gerard Meij
 er et.al, moderation by Martijn van Calmthout (De Volkskrant)
DESCRIPTION:Who determines the rules when it comes to open access? Wha
 t dilemmas do researchers, editors and administrators face?\nResearche
 rs want to publish in open access journals so they can reach as wide a
 n audience as possible. But publication in a journal with a high impac
 t factor and without open access often carries more prestige.\nShould 
 public funded research not automatically be accessible to all? Should 
 the current publishing system be given a complete overhaul?\nWhat are 
 the advantages and drawbacks of open access and what does it take to m
 ake the system work? What opportunities are there to move all publishe
 rs towards open access and how can researchers, editors and universiti
 es contribute to this?\nGive your anonymous opinion using a voting dev
 ice and join the discussion from the perspective of an individual rese
 archer, editor or university administrator.\nWith:\nGerard Meijer, Pre
 sident of the Radboud University Executive Board, who negotiates with
