From: Ken Masters <[log in to unmask]> Date: Wed, 30 May 2012 20:15:29 +0400 Hi All Bill, don't you think it would have been prudent for Beall to have disclosed a possible conflict of interest on his blog and on his Facebook site, because he is on the editorial board of a Routledge / Taylor and Francis journal: Cataloging & Classification Quarterly http://www.tandf.co.uk/journals/journal.asp?issn=0163-9374&linktype=145 and was previously on the editorial board of their Journal of Library Metadata http://www.tandfonline.com/toc/wjlm20/8/1 Seems he could be opening himself up to all sorts of accusations. And people who refer positively to his list or site might find themselves in a rather embarrassing position. Regards Ken ------ Dr. Ken Masters Asst.
