Comment on Dramatic growth of Open Access by Stevan Harnad

GOLD FEVER If you are eager for universal OA whilst you are still hale, hearty and compos mentis, forget about the statistics on the growth of Gold OA (publishing) and focus instead on the statistics on the growth -- and, more important, the immediate growth potential -- of Green OA (self-archiving), especially the actual and potential growth of its all-important Green OA self-archiving mandates. The surest, easiest and fastest way to universal Green OA is for universities and funders to mandate it. That also happens to be the surest, easiest and fastest way to reach universal Gold OA, eventually. Concordia is the only one of the four Montreal universities to have adopted a Green OA self-archiving mandate. Let McGill be the next.

Simon Fodden over on Slaw posted a note about Hot Docs today as well. He recommends starting with “one of the short ones — The $4 Haircut — then if you like jazz, there’s Divine Brown at The Rex — and have a look at the charming Daddy Tran and his 3D photography hobby — or just go with the flow and see a list of the most popular films.”
