http://www.lyponline.com/infocus/0907/Special_Report.htm Courtesy of Emory University Are publishers getting rich publishing your research? A Bear-Stearns evaluation of Reed-Elsevier (one of the world's largest publishers of scholarly journals) recently rated the company, which earns profits of almost 40% annually, "a stockholder's dream." Should private publishers be getting rich selling information generated by research that is funded by academic institutions and the public? What's happening and how does it affect scholars? This article looks at one university’s experience.

In observance of Native Americans’ Day, the library will be closed on Saturday and Sunday, October 6th & 7th. The Library will be open on Monday, October 8, 4 pm to 12 midnight.

For those of you who may not have had the opportunity to view the M-Day slide show, a copy is now available on the Library’s website, http://library.sdsmt.edu Just click on the M-Week link. One VERY large file with the complete show is available; running time is approximately 30 minutes and may take a bit of time to open. Alternately, for those with little patience and/or a slow internet connection, the show has been divided into 15 separate parts, each running approximately 2 minutes.

It’s all about friends! Join us at the Devereaux Library on Tuesday, September 18, as we discuss various virtual social networks. The library is experimenting with two such networks, Goodreads and Facebook. We will explore these networks and their application to library users and the campus community. We will also touch on virtual library assistance using Meebo. Whether you are seeking or sharing information or just want to connect with a variety of people, these virtual networks may be for you. Already using Facebook (more than 1600 people belong to the SDSM&T network) or one of the many other social networks? We’d love to hear from you. Join us at 10 am, September 18, in the i-hub area of the library to learn and share. Can’t make it to the discussion? We’d be glad to meet with you at your convenience; phone us at 394-1259, or e-mail mailto:cindy.davies@sdsmt.edu
