Submitted by mhbppr on Tue, 07/15/2008 - 17:30

Summer has come to Rochester and things are heating up for the OPL. We have five full time student researchers working on a number of projects, tackling everything from Open Journals to making Wiki's and blogs print friendly.

In the next few weeks we're looking forward to rolling out an exciting new resource for people who want to get started with self publishing.

And most exciting, our Innovation News Platform has been featured in the July issue of Newspapers & Technology. The article profiles our successful test of the i-News at May's Imagine RIT Innovation Festival. You can read the article here.

Speaking of the i-News, there is a new beta release of the i-News module available at drupal.org. If you're interested in setting up your own web-to-print newspaper using Drupal, take a look at this project.
