In the Library with the Lead Pipe <http://inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe.org/> (http://inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe.org/) is peer-reviewed, it's OA, and it's new as of last week. But is it a journal or a blog? It deliberately blurs the boundary. (Thanks to Walt Crawford<http://walt.lishost.org/2008/10/ejournal-as-blog-a-novel-experiment/>.) >From the about page <http://inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe.org/about/>: We are six librarians <http://inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe.org/authors>working in academic, public, and school libraries across the United States. In addition to essays by its founders, *In the Library with the Lead Pipe*will feature articles by guests representing special libraries and archives, as well as educators, administrators, library support staff, and community members. *In the Library with the Lead Pipe* is intended to help improve our communities, our libraries, and our professional organizations. Our goal is to explore new ideas and start conversations; to document our concerns and argue for solutions. Each article is peer-reviewed by at least one external and one internal reviewer.... >From the inaugural post<http://inthelibrarywiththeleadpipe.org/2008/introduction/>(October 7): ...Our current plan is to publish a new post every Wednesday. Each post will be peer-reviewed by at least one external and one internal reader. If things go well, we may step things up to twice a week, especially if we add new folks to our team or find a lot of guest writers whose work we want to publish.... -- Fernando César Lima Leite [EMAIL PROTECTED] 61-84013402
