Chronicle: Last June researchers and librarians at the University of California threatened to boycottNature and the other journals published by Nature Publishing Group in response to a 400% jump in subscription fees. NPG countered with a press release that argued that the subscription increase was high only because the University of California had been benefiting from a previous, unusually generous deal. Now, reports the Chronicle‘s Jennifer Howard, the two sides are working together to strike a new, mutually agreeable deal.
