About this blog
This is my personal blog which I started in 2003. At first it was called Communigations, a variation on Communicative Investigations. The blog transformed itself more into a personal investigation than being a blog on communication and therefore needed a new name.As a fencer, the name of this blog reflects how I write my thoughts into coherent stories, fence them off from all the sidepaths and rapidly go back and forth, covering various topics that interest me.

Good plan: Dutch publications digitized (52)
The Royal Library (KB), the national library of The Netherlands, plans to digitize all Dutch publications since 1470. You could easily say what took them so long, but in this case I’d say rather late than never. Good plan!
From their policy for the next 3 years:
This includes all digital publications.
From the full document I can conclude that digital access to information on scientific publications is one of their focuses. As someone who is outside the academic system, yet craving for proper remote access, I can only applaud this.
