As a community dedicated to openness, we should probably try to help
reverse that trend by highlighting open access academic journal
efforts whenever possible:
http://openjournal.foundation/
http://www.budapestopenaccessinitiative.org/
https://oaspa.org/
https://www.opensocietyfoundations.org/
http://www.theoj.org/
https://www.plos.org/
https://www.hindawi.com/
http://www.biomedcentral.com/
https://doaj.org/
http://oaji.net/
I stopped at ten URLs, but in my opinion the growing trend toward
openness within academia is quite compelling and something we would
do well to support in whatever ways we can.
