A handful of recent news articles have reported that MIT is considering placing its MIT OpenCourseWare program behind a paywall.<p style="color: #323232;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14px;margin: 0;padding: 3px 0 10px 0;">
The articles were based on a misinterpretation of recent statements describing Institute planning activities. The content on MIT OpenCourseWare will continue to be free and available online, as it has always been.</p>
