This presentation was made by Kent Holsinger at a public forum on the impact of recent developments in scholarly publishing. The event explored the newly passed NIH public access mandate which became law in December 2007. In his presentation, Kent Holsinger tries to balance what he sees as the pros and cons. In the end, he favors OA ("Open access is a friend who deserves our help and support"). Holsinger is professor of ecology and evolutionary biology, past president of the American Institute of Biological Sciences, and a member of the Board of Directors for BioOne.
