Analysis shows diverse interests within the OA movement, implying varying needs for funding and access.
Different groups of open-access advocates want different things to be achieved by OA. The "OA movement" is not a homogenous group. Some members of the group believe that all publishing labour is unncessary or could/should be volunteerist. Others want to allow people to read green open access accepted versions, but are happy to leave it at that. Some want a wholesale flip to gold open access and accept that it might cost more.
