DEFINITION OPEN ACCESS 2001
From the BOAI declaration 2002
“kind of free and unrestricted online we call open access - economically feasible -extraordinary power(for reader)to find and make use of relevantLiterature - it gives authors and their works vast andmeasurable new visibility, readership, and impact. -we call on all interested institutions and individuals to helpopen up access to the rest of this literature and remove thebarriers, especially the price barriers, that stand in the way. “
BOAI Declaration 2002
DEFINITION OPEN ACCESS 2012
Open-access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions. What makes it possible is the internet and the consent of the author or copyright-holder. .. OA is entirely compatible with peer review, and all the major OA initiatives for scientific and scholarly literature insist on its importance. .. OA literature is not free to produce, even if it is less expensive to produce than conventionally published literature. The question is not whether scholarly literature can be made costless, but whether there are better ways to pay the bills than by charging readers and creating access barriers. Business models for paying the bills depend on how OA is delivered.

THE WELLCOME TRUST
“The bottom line is very simple: we want the science we fund to have the maximum impact, and it can only have the maximum impact if it has the maximum distribution. It’s as simple as that … Using the internet, we can actually make scientific research accessible – or available at any rate – to anyone who has an internet connection.”
Sir Mark Walport Chief Scientific Advisor to the UK Government 2012
