Monk Prayogshala presents Paywall: The Business of Scholarship Movie Screening

Paywall: The Business of Scholarship is a documentary which focuses on the need for open access to research and science, questions the rationale behind the $25.2 billion a year that flows into for-profit academic publishers, examines the 35-40% profit margin associated with the top academic publisher Elsevier and looks at how that profit margin is often greater than some of the most profitable tech companies like Apple, Facebook and Google.

We at Monk Prayogshala are organising a screening for all those interested in this documentary. Join and learn more about the nature of publishing in academic research!
