“Dutch universities start their Elsevier boycott plan”
Good for them!
“We are entering a new era in publications”, said Koen Becking, chairman of the Executive Board of Tilburg University in October. On behalf of the Dutch universities, he and his colleague Gerard Meijer negotiate with scientific publishers about an open access policy. They managed to achieve agreements with some publishers, but not with the biggest one, Elsevier. Today, they start their plan to boycott Elsevier.

This solution involves coercing academics who do not wish to boycott Elsevier. Better is to offer inexpensive online alternative journals. Honour to those who have such plans!
