From: Peter Suber <[log in to unmask]> Date: Sun, 2 Dec 2012 13:00:02 -0500 * Announcement (cross-posted) * I just mailed the December issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter. This issue takes a close look at the idea of an OA evidence rack, a new structure for organizing the evidence in support of the basic propositions in a field and for making that evidence OA. The look-back section reprints short excerpts from SOAN five ago this quarter. The section on SOAN ten years ago is on ice until next fall because ten years ago SOAN was on a year-long hiatus (September 2002 - July 2003).
