New issue of Access Magazine

The December issue of Access Magazine is now online. This issue has stories on the book-scanning projects from the British Library and Library of Congress, the Kaufman-Wills report, and the DC Principles Coalition proposal for scaling back the NIH public-access policy. The story on the Kaufman-Wills report does not cover the report's post-publication addendum, which retracts and clarifies some of the report's negative conclusions about peer review at OA journals.
