First Monday June 2006

Earlier this week I blogged about Nature's experiment in peer review. I just clicked into this month's First Monday June 2006 edition and most of the articles are about open access journals. Lots of good stuff to look at and always worth a blog post to share the news.

This month's table of contents includes all the presentations at the recent First Monday conference. Sadly, not all of them are online. I hope that is only temporary!
