If you get money from the NIH in the US then you have to submit your paper to PubMed Central
I'm fairly sure that is a green not a gold model of open access. You publish the paper in the journal then you additionally make it open in pubmed central. Brilliant. I am completely in favour. Unfortunately, some publishers insist on a six month delay between publication and pubmed central so it's not quite as good as putting the paper on arxiv or your own website... but that is exactly the way open access should be. It's not what we would be getting in the UK though.

Which shows that over 80% of articles can be self-archived immediately, and it goes up to about 95% after embargos are over (typically a year).
Ok, you've sold me, this seems to be largely a solved problem, with only a small proportion of holdouts.
