Public Library of Science on NPR (real audio)

[Issy Nevis <issynevis@yahoo.com>]

On Friday afternoon 6/22, NPR's "Science Friday" devoted an hour to the
Public Library of Science initiative.  Host Ira Flatow's guests were
Harold Varmus, former director of the NIH and now President of
Memorial-Sloan Kettering in NY; Ann Okerson (liblicense-l moderator),
Associate University Librarian at Yale; and Karen Hunter, Senior VP of
Elsevier.  The archived realaudio version of the program can be found at:

Dr. Varmus was given a lot of air time, but the whole was quite reasonable
and interesting.
