More on the DCPC proposal

Stacie Bloom, Taking the direct route to make open access even easier, Journal of Clinical Investigation, December 2005. A short restatement of the DC Principle Coalitions proposal for the NIH to link to articles at publisher web sites instead of hosting its own OA copies.

(PS: Bloom does not attempt to answer any of the objections to the DCPC proposal or to consider the reasons why the NIH is willing to link to publisher sites in addition to, but not instead of, hosting its own OA copies.)
