From: RAPPAZ Francois <[log in to unmask]> Date: Tue, 20 Jun 2017 12:28:37 +0000 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 ?
