Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #paywalled, aggregated by home.social.

  1. Update. Here's another article that made it through peer review (at #WoltersKluwer) falsely asserting that all #OpenAccess journals charge #APCs.
    dx.doi.org/10.1097/SAP.0000000
    (#paywalled)

    General thesis: Paying APCs is a hardship (true) and the prices are going up (true). Therefore, to help medical students publish OA, medical schools should fund their APCs.

    The article never mentions no-fee OA journals (#DiamondOA) or no-fee OA repositories (#GreenOA).

  3. 2/ I suspect that these articles were published in #paywalled journals. Their authors released preprints after publication as a way to avoid the risk of rejection (#IngelfingerRule) and still make some version #OpenAccess.

    Depositing the accepted author manuscript (#AAM) in an OA repository (#GreenOA) would have let them share the peer-reviewed text, not just a preprint. But when journals don't allow this and when authors haven't retained rights, then depositing an OA preprint is a workaround.
