BBC Radio 4: Publish or be damned

It's still available (Feb 2005).

An important overview/commentary on open access - open achives - self-archiving - institutional repositories was on BBC Radio 4 on Tuesday, Dec. 21. It's about 40 minutes long and explains the modern academic's choices related to access to new forms of "publishing".

The programme reportedly will be repeated on Boxing Day (Sunday 26th at 5:00 pm GMT), but it is also available on the web for a week at the above URL - look under P for Publish or be damned.

SPARC just had a conference on Institutional Repositories
