Harvard is making an institutional commitment to open-access publishing, and several leading universities are now preparing to follow its example. Traditional publishers responded to the research community's interest in wider access to medical science with a strategy unlikely to send a positive signal to the medical research community, such as cost-cutting and job losses.
