Resumen
Open access together with advances in information and communication technology (ICT) have transformed the economics of academic publishing. They have also highlighted a revitalized role for institutional journals. These journals often published through institutional mandates can offer open access without the perceived conflicts of interest created by charging publishing fees. The Memórias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz provides an interesting case study for other institutional journals.
