...mandating that all articles based on research funded by the National Institutes of Health be made openly accessible through PubMed Central, the database maintained by the National Library of Medicine. The Harvard University Library will set up an Office for Scholarly Communication to make the open-access repository an instrument for access to research across all disciplines in the spirit of the “one-university” environment that the HOLLIS catalog now provides for holdings in all the libraries, more than 80 of them, throughout the University system.

...confirmed nationalist who requires all foreign players signed to the team to learn Catalan, and who has fashioned himself as an international ambassador of sorts. He even popped up, for example, at this year's Frankfurt book fair to promise that his team "would continue to be an instrument for Catalan culture."

He played a piece that had an ethereal, eerie sound, accompanying his own cello solo by singing a vocal part. The moment emphasized the fact that Koh is not simply someone playing an instrument, but actually is the instrument himself...
