A Blog Article by Pablo Markin. Over three-quarters of Taiwanese research institutions and universities have chosen to cease subscribing to Elsevier’s journal access packages, in their efforts to adopt open access as the format that sustainably enables local and international scholars to access publicly-funded scientific output.
