More on the White House involvement in the NIH debate Robin Peek, Oh the OA Drama of it All, Wikis@GSLIS, October 27, 2007. A preprint of a forthcoming column for Information Today (like this one). Excerpt:
Comment. It may be that the next president will be friendlier to OA than the current one. But I'm still optimistic that we can win an OA mandate at NIH this year, even if Bush vetoes the first version of the LHHS appropriations bill. Two of the reasons are (1) bipartisan support for OA in Congress, and (2) Republican support for OA in both the legislative and executive branches. I'll have more to say about this in the November issue of SOAN. Meantime, thanks again to Information Today for permitting Robin to post these preprints. |
