- As any librarian can tell you, the [expensive] journals are in the University
- library by author and editor demand, not reader demand. When people stop
- serving on editorial boards and sending papers to the highpriced science
- journals, we may see more books in our libraries.
- Talk to your science librarian about the problem!
