NIH and PubMed
December 21, 2007
Both the House of Representatives and Senate this week approved the revised Labor Health and Human Services (LHHS) appropriations bill which leaves intact a directive for the National Institutes of Health (NIH) requiring investigators to deposit their final papers in PubMed Central.
Papers will then be available within a year after publication. All that's left is the president's signature, which is expected, and could come this week. The approval caps a several years-long fight spearheaded by SPARC, to make public access a requirement for NIH grantees.

Horizon Report
December 19, 2007
Educators, you might be interested in the results of the Horizon Report.
Seeking to identify and describe emerging technologies likely to have a large impact on teaching, learning, or creative expression within higher education, it is the result of an ongoing collaboration between the New Media Consortium and the EDUCAUSE Learning Initiative (ELI), an EDUCAUSE program.
Learn about the six areas of emerging technology, and two technologies that appear on this year's nearest adoption horizon - user-created content and social networking.
The report is also available in wiki format.

doi: 10.1097/01.NMC.0000288005.18124.b8
Access it through our electronic journals, the Journals@Ovid database, or if coming in via a UB machine, enter the doi number string above at doi.org/
Two websites she mentions are indeed beautiful and tender:
