[Aztlan] Online Collected Papers of Vincent H. Malmström

[Michael Smith]

Elaine, thanks for the link to Malmstrom's papers. Online archives of published papers like this can be extremely useful for reference, and they are all too rare in our field. Perhaps someone at FAMSI, or some other institution concerned with reference work and dissemination of information, could compile lists and links to archives like this.  Here are just a few that I happen to have saved:

I'm sure there are more of these, but still far too few. Those of you who publish a lot but don't post your papers online, its time to get with it! This is the wave of the future, and making published papers more widely available is a major service to scholarship. Its called self-archiving, one of the major approaches to open access publishing. If you want to hear me rant about this, see entries under "self-archiving" in the index of my publishing blog:
