1. CRKN (Canadian Research Knowledge Network) members joined PLOS' Community Action Publishing (CAP) program. CAP enables 19 institutions-including Ontario Tech University and the universities of Alberta, Manitoba, New Brunswick, and Toronto-"to publish fee-free in PLOS Medicine and PLOS Biology. [It] shifts publishing costs from authors to research institutions based on prior publishing history as affiliated with corresponding and contributing authors. The group collectively contributes to the shared cost recovery target and any surplus revenue collected by PLOS is redistributed to members."
