Penn Free Culture’s first meeting
The University of Pennsylvania is getting a free culture chapter! Rebekah Baglini from Bryn Mawr and myself attended Penn Free Culture’s first meeting yesterday, to show regional support. They have a lot of exciting plans for the next year, including opposing the university’s proposed adoption of Ruckus, a DRM-crippled Windows-only music service, and supporting open access publishing. I also have hopes that they will get a Copynight going in Philadelphia… it’s truly a travesty that Pittsburgh has a Copynight but Philadelphia doesn’t 
This is one of many exciting developments to come out of the national summit that we had a couple weeks ago… I have every expectation that they will have a thriving chapter come fall!
