RE: A publication portal for open, global and perpetual access to science

in #science8 years ago

In my field, we have the chance to have one open access journal for letters (PLB) and two open access journals for normal articles (JHEP and EPJC). I am always cycling through those. I am for the moment also questioning myself with respect to APS journals. They refuse to sign the SCOAP3 agreement and I am wondering whether I should simply stop writing referee reports for them as a sign of protest.

Sort:  

I think refusing to be a referee is a fair response to that. If everyone did that then they might cave and sign the agreement.
