New Cites & Insights

The March issue of Walt Crawford's Cites & Insights is now online. This issue has a long section on Library Access to Scholarship in which Walt describes in detail the major recent revolts against high prices and big-deal bundling, reviews some recent literature on OA, and defends OA against some new and old misunderstandings. He also has a section recommending the colloquy I gave for the Chronicle of Higher Education and some recent issues of my newsletter. (Thanks, Walt.) The issue also has a long and useful section on censorware, CIPA, and the arguments against mandatory internet filtering in libraries.
