June issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter

[Peter Suber <peters@earlham.edu>]

* Announcement (cross-posted) *

I just mailed the June issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter. 
This issue takes a close look at how open access facilitates the 
process of scientific self-correction and improves the 
reliability of inquiry, drawing on arguments made by John Stuart 
Mill in 1859.  Warning:  For people interested in university and 
funder policies, journal licensing, repository deposits, citation 
impact, and taxpayer rights, this could be deadly dull.  But for 
people with the philosophy gene, it could almost be interesting. 
The round-up section briefly notes 126 OA developments from May.
