Open Issues with Open Access Publication

Year: 2013
Type: article
Abstract: Open access journals have grown in number over the last decade. In 2000, there were fewer than 800 such journals, and fewer than 20,000 such papers. By 2009, nearly 5000 open access journals were being published annually, containing almost 200,000 articles.1 The rise of the open access model point has been based largely on its strengths: allowing scientists and the public free access to research, efficient navigation and mapping of knowledge, dissemination of scholarship, and increasing recognition and citation of research findings.
