Medical Publishers Propose Data Sharing

Anonymous Patron writes “Interesting article from the Wall Street Journal that seems to have snuck it’s way on to the Web on a consortium of leading technical publishers called patientINFORM, includes the Elsevier unit of *Reed Elsevier *PLC, John
Wiley & Sons, Blackwell Publishing, and others.

The articles say they are alarmed by a government proposal to make biomedical journal articles
more widely and freely available, so the scientific publishing industry has
crafted an alternative plan to distribute some of its content free of
charge to consumers.

The Annoucement can be found on the website patientinform.org.”
