Dear all,
The FAO of the United Nations is pleased to invite you to participate in a
survey on Open Access in agriculture and related sciences. This short survey
(less then 10 minutes) is designed to get a detailed overview of the state
of the art of Open Access (OA) and Open Archives Initiative (OAI) within the
Agriculture Research Community.
The survey will be open until the end of January 2010. The results will be
made available online in the CIARD Ring http://www.ciardring.net/ to give
all participants the opportunity to take a look at and comment the results.
The conclusions drawn will be presented at the IAALD XIIIth World Congress
on 26-29 April 2010, Montpellier, France.
The survey is available in English, French and Spanish at
http://www.ciardring.net/en/survey-oa.
Feel free to forward the URL to anyone you know who may be interested in
contributing.
We would be grateful if you would take the time to complete this
questionnaire. If you have any questions please contact Imma Subirats on
imma.subirats@fao.org
Thank you in advance,
Imma Subirats
