    http://www.bubok.es/libro, this is another web page where many books are free for the public, although most of the writers have to edit their own books with a payment policy.

"MOOCs - International Information and Education Phenomenon?" ASIS&T Bulletin June/July... - 2 views

  •  
    A brief article for an overview of MOOCs. Since the 1990s massive open online courses (MOOCs) have offered web-based learning on a large scale and with open access. The leading MOOC providers in 2014 - Udemy, Coursera and edX - vary in detail but share the goal of facilitating learning for unlimited audiences at no cost or minimal charge, overcoming socioeconomic hurdles and opening education to all.

    Good article! I wonder what it would take to make education truly accessible for all?

Open Access and Libraries | American Libraries Live - 0 views

  •  
    Here's a free webinar on Thursday, Nov. 6 at 11am PST. You can register here or go to this site on that day and see it live! Open Access and Libraries: What open access is (and isn't) "Scholarly journals are increasingly becoming digital, experimenting with new publishing models such as Open Access (OA) and incorporating multimedia into their formats. In addition, the process of research continues to evolve because of mandates from funding agencies to publicly share research findings and data. For a candid discussion of what OA is (and isn't), tune in Thursday, November 6 at 2:00 p.m. (Eastern) for the next free, streaming video broadcast of American Libraries Live. Our panel of experts will give their unique perspective on what OA means now and how it will shape the future and will answer your questions."

  •  
    Kind of short and not a lot of information, but makes you think and possibly want to dig deeper into what articles are objected to on Wikipedia.
  •  
    Heavy metal music, weed, and radio stations have all been deleted from Wikipedia. Watch the clip to find out what the authorities have tried to stop you learning about.

The history of Wikipedia (in two minutes) - 2 views

    For any teachers out there: I'm probably going to use this at some point with my students. Brief but informational.

    A quick intro. I can see having some hands-on exercises and discussions about wikipedia itself, and whether it can be used as a source for research.
  •  
    I found this video very helpful and will probably use it with my students.
  •  
    Very interesting and easy to understand by younger students!
  •  
    It is really a very interesting manner to conceive how Wikipedia was created and how it evolved.

Announcing a new Wikipedia criticism site - 1 views

  •  
    Wikipediocracy.com hosts articles examining Wikipedia's editorial failings and the governance flaws that lead to them, as well as a forum dedicated to criticism of Wikipedia's administrative culture.
  •  
    Wikipediocracy's mission is so negatively stated, that one wonders when someone will have to create a site to examine it: "We exist to shine the light of scrutiny into the dark crevices of Wikipedia and its related projects; to examine the corruption there, along with its structural flaws; and to inoculate the unsuspecting public against the torrent of misinformation, defamation, and general nonsense that issues forth from one of the world's most frequently visited websites, the 'encyclopedia that anyone can edit.'" Oversight of Wikipedia et al is a good thing. A more open minded approach is needed. As I've not yet read any of the articles in depth, I reserve judgment of the site itself. I'm only critiquing the mission statement.

Closing Wikipedia's Gender Gap - Reluctantly - 2 views

    Feminism's dullest mission.

    It is true, there is still a big gap between what men and women do, specially at home. Most of the work at home such as buying meals, cleaning, ironing, etc... are done by women, even if they have a full time job.
