Researcher-led fully-fledged open access is the way forward. Scholars need ownership over their own work. Ownership implies the freedom to enhance our "impact" (as required by funders and employers) but most importantly it implies the humanities can reach out those traditionally excluded from our work, hence advancing the cause for the relevance and urgency of the humanities to the society at large, not just academia and corporate publishers.
