So here's an idea: instead of journals asking scientists to peer-review manuscripts for free, why not offer the reward of waived image or page fees in same journal or stable for every manuscript reviewed?? @springerpub @WeAreIngenta @PLOSONE @ElsevierConnect #TheCostOfKnowledge

I agree- everyone in #science should read this to just raise awareness quite a bit more! Pro-profit #journals charge us 1) publication fees, 2) reading fees and 3) precious time as pro bono referees– and make 40% net profit! Something's wrong here! #thecostofknowledge #Elsevier

For what it's worth, I declined a reviewing request from #Elsevier today and will continue to do so until they stop lobbying against #openaccess. Their profit margins are big enough without tax-funded work from me. @ElsevierConnect #theCostofKnowledge

Three academic publishing companies (Elsevier, Wiley, Informa) siphon off from the research system more than £1.25 billion a year, annually https://t.co/WpxXYkSPOW Wiley only recorded a profit margin of 29.6%, relatively low in comparison! #TheCostOfKnowledge

Nope. No review for #elsevier due behaviour with swedish universities and other practices. They take tax payers through library, make money from my research, put a big political advertisement banner on my paper and then think I will do review. No thanks. #thecostofknowledge

Thanks Sandra. Such a good thread #thecostofknowledge I'd forgotten about those numbers from New Zealand. I think of the big 5 publishers as worse than the cable companies -- bundling stuff they didn't produce or buy, and inflating price. Luckily it's almost all free online now https://t.co/0AKaRmv2mx

If you have ever wondered why commercial, for profit academic publishing is bad, you might want to take a look at the statement of purpose of #thecostofknowledge. This is mostly true of journals, but there are often problems with monographs as well. https://t.co/7cw6d9UokN
