- (Let's make the point on Open Access: publishers, researchers and information scientists meet at the "First European Conference on Scientific Publishing in Biomedicine and Medicine" Lund, (Sweden) 21-22 April 2006) Different aspects of the open access publishing model were discussed at conference in Lund by prestigious speakers, such as Eugene Garfield, Jean Paul Guedon, Stevan Harnad. In synthesis, the open access paradigm is deeply reshaping the scholarly communication system. Researchers are becoming gradually aware of OA impact so that the number of articles published on open access journals is increasing worldwide. Further efforts have to be done to promote authors' self-archiving of scientific works in the digital repositories set up on a large scale by research and academic institutions. The traditional publishing sector keeps to claim its role as producer of "official communication" by issuing prestigious journals, but in many cases offer the authors the choice of adopting both the author pay model or the subscription model to distribute their research outputs. Scientific publishing has been widely recognised as a "cost of research" and this fact should lead to guarantee free, permanent access to public funded research.
