In response to the UK House of Commons committee call for written evidence on whether the government should support open access journals (and other questions), Stevan Harnad has launched a thread on the American Scientist Open Access Forum to provide it. Join the conversation but please don't forget to submit your evidence in a form that the House committee can accept.

Removing the barriers to serious research.
