<p class="MsoNormal">This from Science magazine April 10, 2015<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">“After a decade of often fierce debate over whether the public should have free access to the scientific papers produced by their tax dollars, advocates for so-called open access celebrated a notable victory last month: The National Science
Foundation (NSF) unveiled a plan to require its grantees to make their research freely available. NSF's move meant that the federal agencies that provide the bulk of the nation's basic and applied research funding have now complied with a 2013 White House
order to make the peer-reviewed papers they fund freely available within 12 months of publication.”<o:p></o:p></p>
