<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Dear Reggie and all,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I generally like the list of sub-themes. What may
be covered (? under 'sustainability' or 'transformation'), but is not clearly
so, is the question of monitoring and evaluation of progress towards
greater and more open access in the system. By this I mean not
only tracking the expansion of open access in the form of the
proportion and absolute number of 'Gold route' or 'hybrid' journal
titles, but the actual compliance of commercial, pay-to-read journals
with their 'delayed openness' commitments, on the one hand, and
permissions for deposits on institutional repositories, on the
other........My experience is that compliance with self-set delay periods is
minimal (one is still often asked to pay-to-view for articles dating 3-6 years
back, during internet searches) and that the repository 'Green' route of open
access is highly vulnerable to increasing publisher resistance in the
future. Without a clear agenda for tracking (maybe even 'policing')
overall progress in the system, and making the results public, users will always
be exploited and progress may be much slower than otherwise.</FONT></DIV>
