Support for the Declaration to Defend Research Against US-Government Censorship
by Jiban K Pal 03 Mar '25

03 Mar '25

Dear Colleagues, Some of you may have seen the 'Declaration To Defend Research Against U.S. Government Censorship <https://docs.google.com/document/d/1cC6Vu_CAtgxSck8S9be_hmzSu-w2DsaJ02Nw5oe…>' coordinated by Lisa Schiff, Alice Meadows, Catherine Mitchell, Sara Rouhi, and Peter Suber. The declaration serves as a call to action for the scholarly communication community and other stakeholders in response to recent steps by the US Government that involve, among others, the *banning of terms in scholarly publications and the removal of datasets* and public websites (https://tinyurl.com/2dyadwzr). I feel that we should add our support to the Declaration, either as individuals or as organizations. You can then proceed to extend your support and sign the Declaration by clicking this Link: *https://tinyurl.com/3bwuc38f* <https://tinyurl.com/3bwuc38f> Delaying our response will only amplify the risks of censorship in academic research and cause irreparable harm. *Now it's the time to act...!* Warm regards Jiban *Jiban K.
