This means that even if studies have been funded with taxpayer dollars, they may not be freely accessed by the public.
This has been an issue since decades. If you look for the most known and recognised publishers for the scientific research, almost everyone of them are private publishing groups.
It's really sad. I know that much of the public has no interest in reading scientific studies, but the very principle of the matter is deeply disturbing.
Thanks for stopping by. I appreciate your comment.
