[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 from the past month, it takes a 
close look at the Congressional approval of the NIH public access plan and 
the UK government response to the open-access recommendations from the 
House of Commons Science and Technology Committee.  Among the news stories 
given shorter takes are a series of national OA initiatives launched in 
November, the Kaufman-Wills study of open-access journals, and Google Scholar.
