A Bimonthly Newsletter of Research Library Issues and Actions.
Universities do change, but the change often occurs because of individual acts of foolhardy courage.
Originally presented at a program on scholarly communication that was sponsored by the University of Nebraska library, press, and chancellor, Professor Hilliard reminds us that while universities focus on the economics of publishing and storing texts, that the potential costs of our reluctance to be innovative cannot be calculated in dollars alone. ARL is a bimonthly publication of the Association of Research Libraries and is available in most academic and research libraries. The Association of Research Libraries is an organization of 119 major research libraries in the U.S. and Canada. ARL's mission is to shape and influence forces affecting the future of research libraries in the process of scholarly communication.
