Europe will make publicly funded scientific research public
European Union (EU) ministers have agreed to make a huge amount of scientific research in the region available free of charge by 2020. The move will open up publicly funded papers and articles to a wide audience, helping individuals and businesses to make use of scientific insight. It'll also make it simple for universities (and news publications, like this one) to access papers without having to pay heavy fees. It's called Open Access, and it's a big deal.
