[BOAI] New preprint: The Future of OA: a large-scale analysis

[Heather Piwowar]

Hi all,

Since preprints can be hard to discover sometimes, I wanted to alert you to
a preprint we just posted about OA.  It is the largest, most comprehensive
analysis ever to predict the future of Open Access.  *Given existing
trends, we estimate that by 2025:*

   - *44% of all journal articles will be available as OA*
   - *70% of all article views will be to OA articles*

We've got a few blog posts up summarizing and highlighting the findings:
