• Apologies for Cross-Posting **

This is to announce a new blog (weblog) called:

        Open Access Archivangelism
        Maximizing Research Impact by Maximizing Research Access

        http://openaccess.eprints.org/
    

As of this date, I will begin branching my own substantive American Scientist Open Access Forum postings http://amsci-forum.amsci.org/archives/American-Scientist-Open-Access-Forum.html to the OAA blog as well. I may also blog selected AmSci comments by others there too, but OAA is not meant to replace the AmSci Forum by any means, only to mirror it.
