[Irtalk] Total Availability of Journal Articles to Internet Users

[Hilton Gibson]

To determine the outcome of the different measures taken towards open
access to peer-reviewed research by measuring aggregate availability of a
sample of journal articles.This sample was then used to examine the factors
contributing to the availability or non-availability of types of article.

​Aggregate availability is dependent on a range of activities and current
efforts need to be maintained to ensure its continuance. *Moves towards
open access by commercial publishers are not a major factor.​*
