July issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter

* Announcement (cross-posted) *

I just mailed the July issue of the SPARC Open Access Newsletter. 
This issue takes a close look at OA and the variety of 
digitization projects.  How far can we defend the principle that 
the results of publicly-funded digitization projects should be 
OA?  What if the public funds are supplemented by private funds? 
What if the works to be digitized are under copyright?  What if 
the project wants to provide gratis rather than libre OA?

The round-up section briefly notes 166 OA developments from June.
