Back from the conference.

I went to the Society of Interventional Radiology Meeting The other week and talked to the current editor of the Journal of Vascular and Interventional Radiology. It was interesting. They were discussing trying to move forward into a more digital realm. I did not realize the the publishers do pay the societies for the journal material.. They were interested in what I had to say, and quite surprised that I brought this topic to them as they started discussing it. They say they will stay in touch, so maybe I will get to participate in their ongoing discussion.

I figured that I would actually make a change this year, but at least I feel better trying. And I was encouraged they they were beginning to discuss freeing academic content on their own.
