Why authors should make their articles 'Open Access' ?
The main reason authors make their articles openly accessible is to maximize their research impact. A growing number of studies have confirmed, that an Open Access article is more likely to be used and cited than one behind subscription barriers. Open access helps researchers as readers by opening up access to articles that their libraries do not subscribe to. One of the great beneficiaries of open access may be users in developing countries,where currently some universities find it difficult to pay for subscriptions required to access the most recent journals.
