Here at Harvard College Free Culture, we’re all mostly recuperating from the seven-month adventure that was the creation and execution of ROFLCon (which was, by the way, a smashing success!). However, in a downhill battle like ours, victories keep on rolling in even while we rest. Today it was announced that the Harvard Law School faculty has unanimously voted in favor of adopting an open access policy like the one the college adopted earlier this year.
By the way, I learned of this news from John Palfrey, the current Executive Director of the Berkman Center who has recently been appointed the vice dean of library and information resources at HLS. JP has been nothing but wonderful to us for the entire lifespan of HCFC thus far, and we wish him the best of luck in his new job even though we will miss working with him in the same capacity!
