[Irtalk] Impact of Social Sciences – Paying twice or paying thrice? Open access publishing in a global system of scholarly knowledge production and consumption

[Hilton Gibson]

Instead of paying twice, once to fund the research and again to pay
subscription fees to access that research, the public will find itself, in
effect, paying thrice—*once to fund the research, once to fund open access
global publication and dissemination of the results of the research, and a
third and final time to pay subscription fees to access critical research
conducted throughout the rest of the world.*
