[LIS-Forum] Publishers against OA movement

Dear Annoyed Librarian Accept my support for taking up cudgels on behalf of librarian as agents of free flow of scientific communication towards knowledge enrichment for the betterment of human society at large. Your passionate writing on the issue should be taken as a wake-up call by policy planners who like Jekyll and Hyde sometimes speak for society building through knowledge creation with progress in S & T but most other times don't feel ashamed to pander to the agenda of the private publishers who are only motivated by profit.
