- W4238186505 abstract "As most of us know, the price of commercial scientific journals (R. Johnson, Letters, Science's Compass, 1 Jan. p. 33; D. L. Roth, ibid.; P. T. Shepard, ibid., 27 Nov. p. 1643; H. K. Lee, ibid.; D. Malakoff, News of the Week, 30 Oct. p. 853) has increased at about three to four times the consumer price index (CPI). Even allowing that the CPI is not the correct measure of costs in academia and even allowing for an increase in the number of journal pages published, this is an outlandish rate of increase. Most academic libraries cannot keep up with these price increases and, as a result, the number of subscribers for most commercial journals has decreased over the years. This “wastage” causes the commercial publishers to increase their subscription prices even faster to keep their revenues level. Because the users of these journals (the scientists who publish in them) are not the ones paying for them, the normal law of supply and demand is not operative. In other words, there is no natural feedback system to keep the prices in line. Journals published by societies have not had these outlandish price increases, in part because they are not driven by a need for increasing profits and because there is some feedback from the society members." @default.
