Call for Action: Sign the White House Petition for Public Access to Federally Funded Research
by franc＠library.iisc.ernet.in 31 May '12

31 May '12

Sorry for the cross-posting. Dear Members, The Obama administration is currently considering which policy priorities they will act on before the 2012 election season swings into high gear. There is a brief, critical window of opportunity to ensure that public access to the results of federally funded research is one of those priorities. On May 21, a petition calling for Public Access to Federally Funded Research Results was posted on the White House's "We the People" website. If the petition garners 25,000 signatures within 30 days, it will be reviewed by White House staff and considered for action. A broad range of open access supporters, including ARL and SPARC, are spreading the word about the petition using e-mail, blogs, Twitter, Facebook, and even YouTube. Tweets on the petition (many using hashtags #openaccess and #OAMonday) have included endorsements from such thought-leaders as Jimmy Wales, Tim O'Reilly, and Lawrence Lessig. Please sign the petition today! http://www.arl.org/sparc/media/Sign_White_House_Petition_Open_Access_to_Res… Twitter user @FakeElsevier has created an excellent video you can use to recruit friends, available from http://access2research.org/. Source: http://www.arl.org/pp/access/accessfunded/wh-petition-may2012.shtml Since the petition can be signed by any adult in the world, and since the benefits of President Obama taking action will be global, I urge you to sign the petition. Thanks. With best wishes, - Francis JRD Tata Memorial Library IIsc, Bengaluru -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
