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

[Peter Suber]

* Announcement (cross-posted) *

I just mailed the July issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter.  This 
issue takes a close look at the draft open-access policy from the RCUK and 
ways make open-access literature more visible than it already is.  It also 
updates last month's report on journal policies toward NIH-funded 
authors.  The Top Stories section takes a brief look at the new Swan-Brown 
study of self-archiving, the OA Law Program from Science Commons, the 
rising impact factors at BMC and PLoS, a raft of new resolutions endorsing 
OA, and the House of Representatives support for PubChem against the 
lobbying of the American Chemical Society.
