Launched about a month ago (sometimes the news just trickles in), the Canadian Association of Research Libraries (CARL) Online Resource Portal will "enhance public access to scholarly journal articles through the use of 'pre-print' servers." The service harvests e-prints from six Canadian university libraries. According to the launch press release, "The Harvester was developed by the University of British Columbia s Public Knowledge Project and is hosted by Simon Fraser University Libraries. It works by aggregating the material from each participating institution and enables users to search all Canadian repositories at once, seamlessly,using one common point of access."
