LISNews: Librarian News

Good news if your looking for DoD info. The Federation of American Scientists has used the Freedom of Information Act to reopen access to the Army's on-line Reimer Digital Library. There is however a warning certificate if you do try to enter the site.

Here's the story--from two days ago-- of the library's closing: "The Army has shut down public access to the largest online collection of its doctrinal publications, a move criticized by open-government advocates as unnecessary secrecy by a runaway bureaucracy." Both articles are from the Washington Post. Additional commentary from the New Civilization Network.
