Importance of Publication (Open Access)

Susan Bonne

Open access Journal publishing policy has been the best solution to this growing crisis in higher educational institutions. Open access journals charge authors for publication and make their contributions freely available online. This means that scientific contents can be accessed by anyone with online access free of charge. In June 2003 first legislation of open access was implemented in US. It is widely known as the Sabo Bill. The bill highlighted that the research papers ineligible for copyright protection if written by scientists who received substantial federal financing for their academic work. The intent of the bill was to provide free and widespread public access to the government funded papers.
