Nearly six years ago Ira Mellman, then Editor-in-Chief of the JCB, published an editorial entitled "Providing realistic access" (1). It described the Journal's efforts to reconcile its subscription-based business model with the goal of providing public access to scholarly journal content. Since then, developments in the public-access movement are bringing us closer to the ideal of universal public access. But will there still be a place for selective journals like the JCB when we achieve that objective?
大约六年前，当时的 JCB 主编 Ira Mellman 发表了一篇题为“提供现实的访问途径”的社论（1）。它描述了该杂志如何调和其基于订阅的商业模式与提供学术期刊内容的公共访问目标。从那时起，公共访问运动的发展使我们更接近普遍公共访问的理想。但是，当我们实现这一目标时，像 JCB 这样的选择性期刊还会有一席之地吗？
