More on the bill to strengthen the NIH policy Lila Guterman, Open-Access Policy Would Be Strengthened in House Panel's NIH Spending Bill, Chronicle of Higher Education blog, June 12, 2007.
PS: There's still time for US citizens to ask their representatives to support this bill. See the details from the ACRL and the frequent updates from the ATA. The NIH is the world's largest funder of medical research, and its $28 billion budget results in about 65,000 peer-reviewed articles per year. Strengthening its public access policy from a request to a requirement is a critical goal for OA and medical research. |
