"This is astonishing. Harvard is one of the best and one of the wealthiest universities in the world. But last week its Faculty Advisory Council* announced that it can no longer afford to maintain its subscriptions to academic journals.
The announcement was made online by the Council as a message to the academic staff at the university. I have taken the liberty of quoting it in full below.
The message is notable since it bears out many of the factors — in terms of costs — that have been highlighted by the Elsevier boycott (though no particular publisher is mentioned in the communiqué)."
