The September issue of the LANL Research Library Newsletter is now online. This issue contains short reports on an upcoming colloquium on EScience by Daniel Atkins, the awarding of the ANSI Meritorious Service Award to Herbert van de Sompel, the H-Index to measure the impact of individual scholars, and the debate on the RCUK draft OA policy.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
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.
