Open Athens is a new access and identity management framework that embraces software tools/libraries, utilities, GUI's and services. It is underpinned by a new standards based open architecture and is now available at www.nature.com.
For full details of the benefits of how the system works, and how www.nature.com can be reached from your institute, please contact your librarian or other information specialist.
