Berkeley Research Impact Initiative
Advancing the Impact of UC Berkeley Research
The Berkeley Research Impact Initiative (BRII) supports faculty members, post-docs, and graduate students who want to make their journal articles free to all readers immediately upon publication.
An 18-month pilot program, BRII will subsidize, in various degrees, fees charged to authors who select open access or paid access publication. The pilot will also yield data that can be used to gauge faculty interest in — as well as the budgetary impacts of — these new modes of scholarly communication on the Berkeley campus.

Is there any internal research on efforts by financial managers' viz the serials crisis? It seems that since Barschall, librarians and then some faculty members pioneered the identification and analysis of 'serials crisis'. Since there are well paid members of the administrative staff whose job is 'cost management' and 'cost control', I find it interesting that this type of cost is controlled only through budget limitations rather than challenges to publisher market power.
