For a wonderful blog post that details one writer’s experience navigating the world of scholarly publishing, please read “Proof” by Micah Vandegrift. You can also read open-access versions of the articles that were printed in the Journal of Library Administration‘s Special Issue: Digitial Humanities in Libraries – New Models For Scholarly Engagement, if you don’t have access to the publication.

The blog post you mention is even more interesting after you learn that the editorial board of the Journal of Library Administration has now collectively resigned because “it is not possible to produce a quality journal under the current licensing terms offered by Taylor & Francis”
Here’s one link of many about this: http://scienceblogs.com/confessions/2013/03/24/journal-of-library-administration-editorial-board-resigns-over-author-rights/
Great connection, Ruth. Thanks for the comment.
