Interesting content follows.
This lecture/webcast from just over a months ago, will be of interest to librarians, publishers, people interested in open access, authors, scientists, database developers, and others.
What can researchers expect next from PubMed Central? Dr. David Lipman, [an excellent speaker] Director of the National Center for Biotechnology Information at the National Library of Medicine, gives an overview of the past, present, and future of the National Institutes of Health's archive of biomedical research articles. On its 10th anniversary, PubMed Central is one of the world's largest archives of freely accessible full-text journal articles. Its launch in February 2000 marked a major step toward providing greater access to the results of publicly funded research.
Questions from the audience are asked and answered.
