In the latest skirmish between academia and publishers over the costs of
academic journals, the University of Konstanz in Germany has broken off

Elsevier. The publisher’s prices are too high, said university Rector
Ulrich Rüdiger in a statement, and the institution “will no longer keep up
with this aggressive pricing policy and will not support such an approach.”
