Connotea Imports 2012-07-31

Summary:

"Edmund Kitch, a law professor, and Brian Pusser, a professor at the Curry School of Education and chairman of the senate's Task Force on Scholarly Publication and Authors' Rights, presented a draft resolution on open access to scholarship with the intention that senators vote on it at their November meeting." The resolution is a Harvard-style mandate except that it imposes a minimum (not maximum) 12 month embargo on the OA release of deposited articles.
