From: <[log in to unmask]> Date: Wed, 9 Oct 2013 07:54:30 -0700 Just a quick note about the context of this report by Andrea Kwan. It was based on a White paper she prepared for the Canadian Association of University Presses in 2011: http://blogs.ubc.ca/universitypublishing/files/2010/03/ACUP-White-Paper-Open-Access_Kwan.pdf It was subsequently expanded and submitted as a Master's thesis at Simon Fraser University, also in 2011. Someone decided to upload the thesis recently, and it has been picked up in social media, and this may have given the impression that this is a new study. This explains the lack of reference to many of the recent developments. Best Leslie Chan
