( 21 July 2004)
Also winning investors' approval was Reed Elsevier. Shares in the publishing conglomerate rose 10-1/2 to 496-1/2 following a benign House of Commons Select Committee investigation into scientific publications, in which the Anglo-Dutch group is a major player.
The market had feared that the Select Committee would recommend a move away from a subscription-based model to one based on open-access for all.
However, the report fell far short of recommending the mandatory adoption of open-access.

Since the publisher did not have the good idea to assign an Open Access status
to an article dealing with
Open Access, the raw content of this article is available
here , I hope this publisher will adopt an Open Access policy, in the
future, concerning articles dealing with Open Access.
