Open Access
Free, immediate, permanent online access to the full text of research articles for anyone, webwide.
There are two roads to OA:
1. the "golden road" of OA journal-publishing , where journals provide OA to their articles (either by charging the author-institution for refereeing/publishing outgoing articles instead of charging the user-institution for accessing incoming articles, or by simply making their online edition free for all)
2. the "green road" of OA self-archiving, where authors provide OA to their own published articles, by making their own eprints free for all.
