The Chronicle of Higher Education is sponsoring an on-line discussion this
week on the issues raised by a story about a debate at the California
Institute of Technology over whether professors should try to retain the
copyright on the articles they publish in journals. The provost at Caltech
is pushing the plan as a way to deal with the rising costs of journals,
but some faculty members fear that going along would hurt their chances of
getting published. The story and and the on-line discussion can be found
