Nach ein paar Jahren, in denen sich die Verleger offensichtlich zurückgehalten haben, lag die Preissteigerung 2006 bei uns (400 Titel Vergleichsgrundlage) mit 13,2% wieder deutlich über den Steigerungsraten der Vorjahre (2004: 6%, 2005: 4,5%) und weit weit über der Inflationsrate (ca. 1,5%) oder der Veränderung des Bibliotheksetats (±0%). Ich führe den Anstieg auf die weite [...]

Was man nicht selber den Verlagen alles an Rechten einräumt, nur um publiziert zu werden… Und dann beschweren wir uns über die “dummen” Wissenschaftler, die einfach ihr Copyright weggeben, anstatt alles auf unseren Open Access Server zu legen.
