A Step Forward for Open Access
Source: Center for Science in the Public Interest, October 29, 2007

The U.S. Congress has approved legislation that would provide free  
public access to all published research funded by the National  
Institutes of Health, despite a lobbying campaign by the Association  
of American Publishers (AAP), which includes leading scientific  
publishers like Elsevier, Wiley, and the American Chemical Society.  
Earlier this year, AAP hired the PR firm of Dezenhall Resources to  
campaign against open access. In August, it launched Partnership for  
Research Integrity in Science and Medicine (PRISM), to promote its  
claim that open access would undermine peer review.
