Open Access News

News from the open access movement


Monday, August 18, 2003

The September issue of Walt Crawford's Cites & Insights is now online. This issue contains a major section on Scholarly Article Access. It covers the Sabo bill (good survey of opinion pro and con), my own newsletter (a favorable review), Open Access Now, the Bethesda statement, and a handful of articles on open access. (PS: I swear that Walt is warming up to open access. This is both his longest examination of open access in one issue and his friendliest. He's skeptical about some approaches and some arguments, but if he's still skeptical of open access itself, he doesn't say so this time.)
