Abstract: Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment (NDT) began life 2 years ago like a typical academic journal, as the official journal of the International Neuropsychiatric Association and distributed through individual and institutional subscriptions. Now into its 3rd annual volume and already moving from quarterly publication to 6 times per year. All editorials in NDT are now an Open Access as a first step in a migration to full Open Access. In this Editorial, the Editors and a distinguished member of the Editorial Board give their collective views on what Open Access means for academic publishing.
