[GOAL] Re: libre vs open

[Darnton, Robert]

Dear Fellow Travelers,

For what it's worth, I would like to express my agreement with Hélène Bosc's argument.  In my own experience, "accès libre" works well in France and Québec, "open access" in English-speaking countries.  Those phrases have caught on, and it is too late to change them now.

Best wishes,
Bob Darnton
