Open letter of complaint to publishers of Pediatrics

If you haven't seen this already, Oliver Obst, Head of the Central Medical Library at the Westfalische Wilhelms-Universitat Munster, and past Vice-President of the German Medical Library Association, has written an open letter of complaint to the American Academy of Pediatrics, publishers of Pediatrics. In it, Obst states his objection to the price hike for subscriptions and the cost of site licences. 'As long as you keep to this pricing scheme, you are no longer "dedicated to the health of all children".'
