Recent issue of Science & Technology Libraries

It looks like I forgot to blog the OA-related articles from the combined 1-2 issue of vol. 24 (2004) of Science & Technology Libraries. Only the abstracts are free online to non-subscribers, at least so far.

I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
