To readers of Liblicense-l:  Your moderator is sad to report that 
we have had to remove the name of our colleague Peter Banks from 
our subscription list for the saddest of reasons:  he passed away 
on Saturday of cancer at age 52. Long-time publisher at the 
American Diabetes Association (ADA) and more recently a 
publishing consultant, he was one who cared deeply about the 
future of scholarly publishing and wrote thoughtfully and 
clearly, on this list as well in many other venues, about the 
issues that concern many of us.  He was a key advocate for 
information and support, and he worked unstintingly with many 
organizations, individuals, and publishers, to create resources 
and pathways to usable, high-quality information for patients, 
their family/friends, and caregivers.

His wife, Lucy, has said we might send all 3,000+ readers this 
message and she would like to share with us that he passed 
quickly and peacefully - that he greatly enjoyed and valued being 
part of the listserv community.

Here are the details for services and donations for Peter:

There will be a gathering -- everyone is welcome -- from 7-9 p.m. 
on Tuesday, July 24, and a memorial service at 2 p.m. on 
Wednesday, July 25, followed by a reception. All will take place 
at Little River United Church of Christ, 8410 Little River 
Turnpike, Annandale, VA 22003.  (Note that the church is not 
visible from the road. The entrance is across the street from 
Northern Virginia Community College (NOVA).)

In lieu of flowers, please make donations to the American Cancer 
Society (for research) or the FPYC (Fairfax Police Youth Club), 
which was a big part of Peter's life as a coach and an advocate.

We are deeply saddened to lose the voice of one far too young to 
leave us.
