ATG Hot Topics of the Week

by Jonathan H. Harwell, Rollins College

Richard Price of Academia.edu is predicting that altmetrics will kill the scientific journal.  Projects like Rubriq might affect them too.  The Scholarly Kitchen has an interview with Rubriq’s co-founder Keith Collier about how they’re managing pre-pub peer review, “independent from journals.”

Mary Minow has some thoughts on that legislative bill on e-book pricing in Connecticut, which will get a hearing in less than 2 hours from now, by the way.  Looks like the CLA is keeping up with it, so watch their page for updates.

Thanks for staying tuned!
