Preserve YOUR copy rights!

Read this post on the Duke U. Scholarly Communications blog: http://library.duke.edu/blogs/scholcomm/
APA (American Psychological Association) is trying to charge authors for putting their NIH-funded work into into PubMed--as mandated by law. This is a good reminder that the creators of the content--you the faculty--are the only ones who can rein in such attempts by the publishers. If you need more information on how to negotiate maintenance of copyright for articles you want to publish, see the tips at the SPARC website.
