EGU 2012 Open Access Collection

The Geological Society will once again be exhibiting at this year’s European Geosciences Union General Assembly, taking place from 22 to 27 April in Vienna, Austria.

The EGU General Assembly 2012 will bring together geoscientists from all over the world into one meeting covering all disciplines of the Earth, Planetary and Space Sciences. If you or any of your colleagues plan to attend please visit our stand 19 in the main hall and browse our latest publications and benefit from exclusive offers and discounts.

To mark this, the following selection of papers on the Lyell Collection will be open access until the 28 May 2012. The papers provide an opportunity for non-subscribers to explore the Lyell Collection, one of the most extensive collections of Earth science literature available.
