Scholarly Publishing Practice: the ALPSP report on academic journal
publishers' policies and practices in online publishing is now available

ALPSP has carried out a major new study of the policies and practices of
275 international academic journal publishers, both not-for-profit and
commercial (with a remarkable 66% response rate, including all of the
major publishers).  The findings provide hard evidence to counter some of
the criticism from both, within the academic community and in some
government circles. See `What's New' on the ALPSP website
