Re: Bibliography/repository

Dear Colleagues,

Let me add my New Year greetings to all too. 
Thanks for Michele's suggestion, and for Andrei's input.

Maintaining a preprint repository might have copyright implications,
once the paper is accepted in a journal. 
There are also technical issues in maintaining a digital library
that we need to educate ourselves about.
I will discuss this latter issue with the digital library group at ODU. 
I would welcome input   from others who have had experience
with the issues concerned about maintaining a preprint repository.  

Meanwhile, here are some  immediate solutions:
1. Send a message 
to the group about your  reprint and  a URL where it can be accessed. 
You could do this also for a paper written by some one else 
that might be of interest to the group. 
I do not think we are in any danger of having too many messages
at this stage, but in that eventuality, 
there is a digest option in the listserv that you can set for yourself
to get messages once a day in a digest format.

2. Another option is for me to collect such messages (sent to me), 
and post a message once a month
about new papers written by our community members. 

3. If you send me  a  URL for a page from where your papers can be
accessed, 
I  could include  them in a message to all on the csc list.
Since the message will be archived, it could be accessed at 
the convenience of the members of the listserv.
