JC Guédon: "Librarians have another problem to confront: is it really
their role to support the APC-based form of open access? My answer is
that it is not. [...] If libraries withdrew APC-subsidies, they would
also have more resources to craft open access in better ways,
including the support of pure, APC-free, Gold publishing, presumably
in conjunction with university presses."

Don't you think that APCs, if  paid by the authors themselves and not
by a third party, could be a way to bind the publisher's services and
the users of these services ? or is the scholarly publishing
definitely not a market ?
