Friends:
Here is a short piece by Tim Brody of the University
of Southampton. A strong arguement indeed in favour of
mandating open access to all research, especially
publicly funded research. Best wishes.

Open access and science
I've been asked to contribute to a 'focus' section on
open access:
More precisely, do you think that open-access
publication speeds up scientific dialog between
researchers and, consequently, should be extended to
the whole scientific literature as quickly as
possible?
Do you really think that Open-Access Articles Have
a Greater Research Impact?
If yes, what are, according to you the main
consequences on communication between scientists?
