[OAI-eprints] December issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter

[Peter Suber]

* Announcement [cross-posted] *

I just mailed the December issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter.  In 
addition to the usual round-up of news and bibliography from the past 
month, it answers the objection that foundations and universities can't 
require open access "until the infrastructure is ready", discusses the 
problem of achieving open access in countries and disciplines that pay 
authors for journal articles, and offers some advice to an undergraduate 
student about planning an academic career that combines open access with 
career advancement.
