How about "Scientists in Germany, Peru and Taiwan to Rightfully Dump Elsevier Journals" ?<p>Or maybe "Librarians in Germany, Peru and Taiwan to Rightfully Dump Elsevier Journals" ?
Title is inaccurate. The scientists in question can simply go to sci-hub and input the DOI to access the Elsevier articles.<p>We need more heroes like Alexandra Elbakyan.
I think science is at an interesting point. We've just had our Napster moment with Sci-hub. We'll soon have our Youtube moments with Authorea (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa1ObxI_dqU" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qa1ObxI_dqU</a>) and the rise of preprints in new disciplines, In short, I see self-publishing and dissemination increasing in the coming years.<p>Maybe we'll have our Justin Bieber of research quite soon!
Why not change "publish or perish" to "edit, review or publish or perish?" Gather a union of universities, or a guild or whatnot, and publish through guild venues.
