“So far, more that 90% of all biomedical literature mining has been based on Medline, mainly because it is freely available in a convenient format.”
“…future methods should be able to extract information from the full text of papers…”
“However, it is restricted access to the full text of papers…that is currently the greatest limitation…”

Paying for Open Access

www.plos.org
Paying for Open Access Publishing
• Subscription fees make sense with print• But online, cost of 2 readers = cost of
2000 readers, so why charge all 2000 readers?
• Recover this cost up front• Publisher is a service provider (like a
midwife)

Challenges and opportunities
• Scalable models for financial support of OA– Funding agency policy– Institutional policy– Migration strategies for subscription journals
• The tyranny of the impact factor– OA provides opportunities for new metrics
• Killer applications– We need some
