With all the interest in "big data" these days, I was just alerted to this blog that might be of interest.  For example it "showed that NSF-funded astronomy grants produce papers for up to 15 years!"  A lot of bang for the buck (being a bit punny here).  Check it out:  http://www.ifweassume.com/2013/04/the-cost-of-astrophysics.html

On February 28^th, all Library Reserves materials accessible through the Drexel University Libraries’ website will no longer be accessible to faculty and students. This includes electronic materials previously accessible with a course password. This is a part of our initiative to transition to Ares, our new reserves system that works as a plug in to Blackboard Learn. Library staff ask that faculty please review their library reserve items by the end of the month and request all items be made available through the Ares electronic forms in Blackboard Learn.

No digitized materials or holdings will be lost in this transition! Laura Chance, Library Reserves Coordinator, will continue to have access to all course listings and uploaded materials, such as digitized book chapters and other electronic materials.. You may  review the Libraries’  Reserves page for more information on using Ares and submitting requests through Blackboard Learn:
