Hardin Scholarly Communication News - 5/3/05
A Newsletter for the Health Sciences Campus at the University of Iowa.
May 3, 2005
Issue 3.05
WELCOME to this irregularly issued electronic newsletter. Its purpose is to bring to readers’ attention a variety of topics that affect the current system of scholarly communication, with emphasis on new developments, open access and alternative publishing models in the health sciences. This newsletter aims to reflect the interests of its readers so please forward comments, suggestions and entries to include to karen-fischer@uiowa.edu.
The newsletter has a new look and some new features – and we hope you find them an improvement. We are using a blogging tool so you can now post comments to articles (read more about this in News@Hardin). And, the new format is printer-friendly, so we are no longer providing a PDF copy.
