Subject: [GOAL] A new study by Max Planck Digital Library calculates a
redeployment of funds in Open Access
To: "Global Open Access List (Successor of AmSci)" <goal at eprints.org>


  Dear all,



The Max Planck Digital Library has put forward a study on the
transformation of the subscription-driven system for scientific
publications to an Open Access model.

The study is investigating the question whether the previously used
subscription budgets would be sufficient to fund the Open Access
publication charges and thus bring about a complete transition of academic
publishing. The paper, entitled “Disrupting the subscription journal’s
business model for the necessary large-scale transformation to open
access”, concludes that such a transition would be possible at no extra
costs.
