(PS: If your US-based university, library, or non-profit organization has not joined the ATA, please recommend it. The ATA is a major force in OA advocacy in the US.) ---- We should promote an Alliance for Taxpayer Access in India! Especially with the Right to Information Act and the many initiatives in the area of e-governance, such an Alliance will be of great relevance. The Alliance can also promote OA to publicly funded research. Please forward this mail to others who might be interested in such an Alliance Arun
