迫切需要的研究社区是免费的在线访问（OA开放访问），可以与其同行评审的研究输出。研究人员可以通过两种方式提供：通过在OA期刊（Gold OA）发表文章，或者继续在非OA期刊上发布，并在其自己的OA机构存储库中（Green OA）在非OA期刊上发表他们的最终同行评审的草稿。一旦研究机构和资助者强制执行了自我构造，就可以可靠地产生100％的绿色OA。黄金OA要求期刊转换为OA出版（不在研究界的手中），并且还需要资金支付黄金OA出版成本。有了100％的绿色OA，研究界的访问和影响问题已经解决。如果以及何时100％的绿色OA会造成巨大的取消压力（没有人知道或何时发生，因为OA绿色在无政府状态上生长，文章，而不是期刊），那么取消压力将导致成本降低，缩小和缩小规模和最终在期刊上向OA（黄金）出版的杠杆过渡。随着订阅收入的萎缩，取消的机构意外收获节省了增长。如果并且当期刊订阅变得不可持续时，人均出版成本将足够低，机构节省将足够高到足以覆盖它们，因为出版将仅缩小仅提供同行评审服务提供，从而将文本生成作者和作者和作者卸载给作者和访问提供和存档到OA机构存储库的全球网络。绿色OA将利用向金OA的过渡。
What the research community needs, urgently, is free online access (Open Access, OA) to its own peer-reviewed research output. Researchers can provide that in two ways: by publishing their articles in OA journals (Gold OA) or by continuing to publish in non-OA journals and self-archiving their final peer-reviewed drafts in their own OA Institutional Repositories (Green OA). OA self-archiving, once it is mandated by research institutions and funders, can reliably generate 100% Green OA. Gold OA requires journals to convert to OA publishing (which is not in the hands of the research community) and it also requires the funds to cover the Gold OA publication costs. With 100% Green OA, the research community's access and impact problems are already solved. If and when 100% Green OA should cause significant cancellation pressure (no one knows whether or when that will happen, because OA Green grows anarchically, article by article, not journal by journal) then the cancellation pressure will cause cost-cutting, downsizing and eventually a leveraged transition to OA (Gold) publishing on the part of journals. As subscription revenues shrink, institutional windfall savings from cancellations grow. If and when journal subscriptions become unsustainable, per-article publishing costs will be low enough, and institutional savings will be high enough to cover them, because publishing will have downsized to just peer-review service provision alone, offloading text-generation onto authors and access-provision and archiving onto the global network of OA Institutional Repositories. Green OA will have leveraged a transition to Gold OA.
