More on Open Access at Harvard

Niha S. Jain at The Harvard Crimson has more information on the recent faculty approval of open access (original OEN report). The article discusses which offices will be responsible, and that the repository will be public in a few months. From the article:

According to John W. Collins III, GSE Librarian, allowing open access is universally beneficial. He said it will improve the quality of education worldwide, circulate faculty members’ works, and facilitate scholarly dialogue. He added that the decision has received a positive response from students and people outside the University.

Thanks to Peter Suber at Open Access News for the link.
