<p class="MsoNormal"><font color="black" face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Dear Friends,<br><br>My son sent me the link below to a very strong and very clear article in the Guardian about the huge fees charged by technical publishers for access to journals. It represents how I have felt for a long time, how the math community among others is being outrageously exploited. I feel it ought to galvanize scientists/mathematicians to react and would like to suggest reprinting it in e.g. the Notices of the AMS, the Newsletter of the EMS, the news email from the IMU, etc. The simple response for mathematicians is to cease submitting any papers to Elsevier or Springer journals. (Excuse me but I am sending this to a somewhat random sample of people that occurred to me and whose email address I had -- eg I don't have an address for Ewing or Friedlander.)<br>
