[Irtalk] CU-Boulder libraries 'treading water' in face of annual subscription price increases - Boulder Daily Camera

[Hilton Gibson]

The library frequently subscribes to journals that contain CU research,
Williams said, which essentially means the university is buying back its
own scholarship.

So schools are turning to open access, a movement to make all research free
and readily available to the public.* The university launched last fall CU
Scholar, an electronic repository to preserve and freely distribute
research originating from the Boulder campus.*
