For Whom the Gate Tolls?

An Anonymous Patron writes “For Whom the Gate Tolls?, by Stevan Harnad. How and Why to Free the Refereed Research Literature
Online Through Author/Institution Self-Archiving, Now:
Just as there is no longer any need for research or researchers to be constrained by the access-blocking restrictions of paper distribution, there is no longer any need to be constrained by the impact-blocking financial fire-walls of Subscription/Site-License/Pay-Per-View (S/L/P) tolls for this give-away literature. Its author/researchers have always donated their research reports for free (and its referee/researchers have refereed for free), with the sole goal of maximizing their impact on subsequent research (by accessing the eyes and minds of fellow-researchers, present and future) and hence on society.”
