Humanities left behind in the dash for open access
About this time last year, open access had apparently come of age. According to a study published in the journal PloS One, freely accessible publishing had passed from an early experimental phase into a period of consolidation, with the number of papers showing steady growth. The model had been shown to work.

New and exciting kid on the block: PeerJ | A Blog Around The Clock, Scientific American Blog Network

Fair Cite – Towards a fairer culture of citation in academia
The Fair Cite initiative sprung forth from a series of conversations beginning in November 2011 that asked how best to cite a web-based collaborative project developed in the humanities. Whose names should be included in the citation? What types and levels of contributions constitute “enough” to be listed as an author of this non-traditional form of academic output? Should authorship be limited to principal investigators, or should we also include project managers, database builders, web designers, and student assistants?

Google déploie sa librairie numérique en France
Parmi les éditeurs partenaires figurent Hachette, Editis (La Découverte, Le Cherche-Midi, Nathan), Gallimard et Média participations. M. Colombet n’a pas voulu préciser les termes de ces accords.

Pourquoi ne faut-il pas ouvrir les liens dans une nouvelle fenêtre ?
À l’activation ils ne s’attendent donc pas à voir le lien s’ouvrir dans une nouvelle fenêtre. Et surtout ils savent que s’ils souhaitent ouvrir le lien dans une nouvelle fenêtre ils pourront le faire avec un « click molette », un « contrôle-click » ou un menu contextuel.
