      Why do you think it was so widely popular when things went OA for a few months? People need materials. I am very curious what you think I ought to do when it is unsafe for me to go to the library to get a book for my thesis I am handing in soon.

      But, publishers do need money to survive, right?

      I had no institutional access for much of the time when I was writing my book, and I desperately wanted more open access material. But I also recognise that money doesn't come from nothing.

      I've asked authors to share their work with me for free, and I try to do this less now that I know it's quite a fraught request. But I don't think it is wrong for publishers to point out that they build their business model on the expectation of people buying what they sell.

      I think the problem we have is that open access has drastically helped tenured/secure academics and not the precariat/grad students.

      40 years ago, if you wanted a book, you bought it or you found it in a library. Perhaps you shared it, but you were limited to photocopying or physically moving that book around. Same for grads students as for professors.

      Now, if you are permanent/tenured, chances are you can access most things you want, either online or through loans or through quiet networks with others who will happily share.

      Grad students/ precariat academics won't have that. Often, we have no institutional access at all. We should be angry about that and should petition for better access. But I don't think that means we should be angry with publishers.

      I've repeatedly been asked to teach courses with no access at all - not even a library card. I am angry about that. I know about grad students who're cut off from libraries when their funding ends, and that also seems needlessly unfair.

      Can anyone tell me why universities can't advance access rights to precariat scholars (grad students, or ECRs)?

      To respond to your points: no one ever said that publishers don't need money. But they aren't making money off grad students, and it was a person who works for a publisher who came here to shame a grad student asking for a PDF.

          The business model of a publisher breaking even on highly priced books where they only print 200-300 of them, where most of the purchases are made via libraries and not precarious PhDs and academics is an issue but it isn't one that a grad student can solve.

          And I really bristle at people with jobs saying that grad students are thieves or in the wrong for asking for a PDF. We aren't taking money away from anyone. Any books that I love enough to read over and over I'd buy eventually, and those I just need a page ref for I'd never get
