Access to research communications in developing countries is almost none existent. A medical library in the US will have 3,000 subscriptions. In many medical libraries in Africa they have not received a scientific journal in a decade. With the Internet, scientific journals could be provided for free via a limited access server, such that only Kenya would received Science. This costs Science essentially nothing, and they are not compromising their subscription base by making the journal open to the world.
