Researching Medical Literature on the Internet -- 2003 Update
http://www.llrx.co m/features/medical2003.htm

The proliferation of medical web sites is good news for the researcher with a small to non-existent medical collection. Legal researchers often have to consult medical sources, so it is fortunate that the Internet provides free access to a great deal of the medical literature, either in full text or citation/abstract format, and that it offers search capabilities good enough to fulfill most information needs. In addition, public demand for medical information on the World Wide Web is constant. Many professionally-oriented health care sites have evolved to meet consumer needs, and consumer-oriented sites often include professional literature. Journals, dictionaries, textbooks, indexes - all can be found on the Net in growing numbers. The sources are varied; they include publishers, government agencies, professional organizations, and health libraries.

New Yorker cartoon editor researching

New Yorker cartoon editor researching
humor as a brain function 04/08/2005 03:19 PM
Mark Frauenfelder: Mark Hurst of Good Experience interviewed New Yorker cartoon editor Bob Mankoff, who is working with the psychology department at the University of Michigan to research how humor works in the brain using cartoons as the input.

The experience of humor is similar to the “ah-ha” moment of two things coming together. For humor, two things have to come together to produce the experience of laughter. Normal and abnormal; these things reconciled in a moment, and usually it’s a normal situation violated in some way that we can tolerate. You have to have something normal that becomes abnormal, or something that looks abnormal and then become normal.

So, normal: there’s a guy on the phone, saying “No, Thursday’s out. How about never - is never good for you?” Everything is normal - the office, the syntax of politeness - and yet the message is rude. We have a violation where we have a normal situation.

Open Access STM Literature
http://www.economist.com/science/displayStory.cfm?story_id=3061258

The more than 2,000 publishers offering STM (scientific, technological and medical) literature collectively publish 1.2 million articles a year in about 16,000 periodical journals, but their success is being challenged by the "open access" movement. In the U.K., the House of Commons Science and Technology Committee says that the country's universities should be required to ensure that all their research papers are available free online, and that government-funded research grants ought to include free access to the findings a condition of the awards. In the U.S., the House of Representatives' Committee on Appropriations approved a provision in a bill that backs open access to material published by the National Institutes of Health (NIH); and the leading research associations of Germany, France and Switzerland have signed the so-called Berlin Declaration calling for free access to research findings. Barbara Meredith, a vice-president at the Association of American Publishers, a trade group, says that the open access movement could undermine the sustainability of the publishing industry, even though the entire open access literature currently represents less than 1% of what is published. The Economist magazine comments: "Prestige has its uses and the open-access journals will, no doubt, establish a pecking-order among themselves fairly quickly. But for prestige at any price, time is probably up.

OWL - Ornithological World Literature Database
http://www.birdlit.org/

The American Ornithological Union, the British Ornithological Union and Birds Australia have launched OWL, the Ornithological World Literature database, freely available. OWL is a successor to ROLO, Recent Literature of Ornithology Online and the earlier, printed Recent Literature of Ornithology. The database is hosted by the Edward Grey Institute of Field Ornithology, based in the Zoology Department of Oxford University, UK. At present the database contains 19,000 records, with an emphasis on serials and gray literature. The intent is to extend the database retrospectively to 1950. The sponsors expect the database to contain 100,000 entries by the end of 2004.
