<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Thank you Michelle.&nbsp;</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">It is helpful to know that Scopus is included in research4life, and I note the good work of this initiative.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">For the purposes of analysis of the appropriateness of CC-BY for open access, please note that CC-BY materials are likely being accessed today&nbsp;through a toll access service, Scopus, whether through fully paid services,
 or partially or fully subsidized services in select low income countries. In the latter case, these works are accessed not as open access, but rather as part of a service which requires registration and access provisions which I gather are similar to subscription
 services, i.e. reading requires providing evidence of being a member of a particular institution.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">The difference in vision of open access and research4life is illustrated by the research4life&nbsp;answer to the FAQ question &quot;are there other initiatives for accessing online journals&quot;?&nbsp;</p>
<a href="https://www.research4life.org/faq/" class="OWAAutoLink" id="LPlnk736533" previewremoved="true">https://www.research4life.org/faq/</a><br>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">There is no mention here of open access. There are two links provided for other resources (scroll to the bottom). One link is to the Liblicense Developing Nations Initiatives webpage; the other (not working) is to the
 program pages. The Liblicense page does not mention open access and does not list major open access sources such as the Directories of Open Access Journals, Books, Repositories, the Bielefeld Open Access Search Engine, PubMed/PubMedCentral, arXiv, etc. etc.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Of course it is possible that this is an oversight and that research4life, if notified of the omission, would welcome an update of the FAQ to reflect open access and the widespread availability of OA resources.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0">Although research4life is doing good&nbsp;work, it may be worth noting that according to its website there is commitment on the part of partners to continue this work only until 2025. Also, while charity is wonderful, equity
 is better. My vision of OA includes a level playing field - everyone can access the resources (recognizing infrastructural and education inequities that also need to be overcome), and everyone qualified can contribute on an equal basis. The latter might be
 an interesting discussion for another time.</p>

<p class="x_MsoNormal">In related news: Elsevier's toll access service Scopus now includes 5,393 open access journals. This is helpful to illustrate and analyze some of the implications of blanket downstream commercial re-use (e.g. CC-BY):<br>
<br>
Extra profit for Elsevier: no need to pay CC-BY journals, and open licensing reduces their costs for clarifying permissions.<br>
<br>
Increase in monopoly power for Elsevier: anyone can use the CC licensed material to create a competitor to Scopus, however only Elsevier can use their copyrighted work. CC-BY reduces the likelihood of successful competition.<br>
<br>
Development of underdevelopment: authors from poor countries get the benefit of increased exposure with OA, but are locked out of the next generation of services built on this such as Scopus. CC-BY is not sufficient to achieve the vision of sharing the knowledge
 of the rich with the poor and the poor with the rich; this license facilitates one-way sharing of the poor with the rich, as it lacks a means of ensuring reciprocity. (CC-BY-SA does not ensure reciprocity either; it means use the same license for derivatives,
 not share like I have. A re-used OA article with CC-BY-SA can be re-used in a TA environment).<br>
<br>
I recommend against the use of licenses allowing blanket commercial re-use to authors, journals, OA advocates and policy-makers.<br>
