Join a live, online discussion with Peter Suber, a professor of
philosophy at Earlham College and author of a blog and a newsletter on
the open-access movement, about whether the push to make journal
subscriptions free will revolutionize scientific publishing and save
universities money, on Thursday, January 29, at 1 p.m., U.S. Eastern time.

This live chat accompanies a long article I wrote on the topic, which
appears in the Chronicle of Higher Education this week:
"The Promise and Peril of Open Access"
http://chronicle.com/free/v50/i21/21a01001.htm
Two sidebars accompany the main article:
"2 Routes to Open Access: Archives and Institutional Subscriptions"
http://chronicle.com/free/v50/i21/21a01101.htm
"Publishers Fear Government Intervention"
http://chronicle.com/free/v50/i21/21a01201.htm
I'd welcome feedback as well as questions and comments for the live chat
on Thursday.
Thanks very much,
