September issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter

[Peter Suber <peters@earlham.edu>]

* Announcement (cross-posted) *

I just mailed the September issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter.  
This issue takes a close look at Jan Velterop's move to Springer and
Elsevier's experiment with free online access at _Information and
Computation_.  It also includes some reflections on 9/11, four years
later.  The Top Stories section takes a brief look at the continuing
debate over the draft RCUK policy, some OA initiatives in India, Google's
decision to suspend the scanning of copyrighted books until November, and
a new JISC-SURF report on scholar attitudes toward copyright.
