BioMedCentral Has New Chem and BMC Blogs

This was forward to me from a library licensing email list:

BioMed Central is pleased to announce a new series of blogs to go with the BioMed Central website.

BioMed Central's own blog is:
http://blogs.openaccesscentral.com/blogs/bmcblog/
and covers all the latest news from BioMed Central, as well as analysis and comment on the latest developments in open access publishing.

Recent posts include:

* A discussion of three things Google could do to make scientific research more accessible

* A cost comparison showing the benefit of open access compared to traditional publication, in terms of cost-per-article download.

* A downloadable version of the presentation given by BioMed Central at the recent European Commission Conference on scientific publishing, "Access, Dissemination and Preservation in the Digital Age."

* Information on the winners of the recently announced BioMed Central Research Awards

BioMed Central's sister sites, Chemistry Central and PhysMath
Central, have also launched their own new blogs:
