dc.description.abstractIn most institutions, researchers will typically enter into a wide range of publishing relationships with commercial and other publishing entities, depending on disciplinary dynamics, considerations around journal reach and impact, likelihood of acceptance, cost of publication, and other factors. It is important that researchers feel empowered to make independent decisions on what and where to publish, but institutional support is required to manage payment and other logistical issues entailed in the publishing process. Institutional support is also needed in the form of one or more "champions" to take a decisive lead on delivering change.en_ZA
