Yale Event of the Day: A Forum on Open Source Scholarly Publishing

Apparently number-crunchers at Duke and at Yale have (albeit informally) figured out that researcher-pays publishing will be significantly more expensive for large research institutions (subscription costs for journals will go down somewhat, but research costs will explode as a $500-$3000 surcharge is exacted each time a scholar wants to publish)... so that probably means it won't happen.

Too bad.
