Jstor academic license

I could not access any of the first articles that contained the word "autism. Everyone else, including journalists, non-affiliated scholars, think tanks and curious individuals, must pay a substantial fee per article, if the articles are available at all.

It takes me about eight minutes to scan a twelve page article. The researcher receives no royalties. Why does it cost so much to read one article? The answer lies in the antiquated system of academic publishing. When an academic conducts research on, say, autism, the research often takes several years.

That research is funded by national grants and subsidized through the university. The professor is given travel money and "release time" to conduct the research. Then the academic submits the paper to an academic journal. Academic journals are housed at universities and are subsidized by the university, because it brings the university prestige.

Academic journals are edited by faculty members. The faculty are given course release time to edit the journal and a small stipend. The university provides offices and work-study students to help with the secretarial work. The editor reviews the manuscripts.
