The call for comments on RCUK’s draft open-access policy is open till Tuesday 10th April Posted: 06 Apr 2012 09:15 AM PDT   The call for comments on RCUK’s draft open-access policy is open till Tuesday 10th April Mike Taylor Sauropod Vertebra Picture of the Week #AcademicSpring, (05 Apr 2012) “Folks — important news on Research Councils UK’s new draft open access policy.  A while back I wrote to RCUK asking when the deadline for submissions is, and I did eventually hear back from Jane Wakefield, Press and Communications Manager.  The deadline is Tuesday 10th April — not today, as I’d originally thought... So please, folks: if you care about yourself, your friends and colleagues, your doctors and your kids’ teachers having access to research funded in the UK, read the draft policy (it’s only six very clear pages) and email your comments to communications@rcuk.ac.uk with the subject “Open Access Feedback”.  There will not be a better chance to influence open-access policy in the UK for years... So please, folks: if you care about yourself, your friends and colleagues, your doctors and your kids’ teachers having access to research funded in the UK, read the draft policy (it’s only six very clear pages) and email your comments tocommunications@rcuk.ac.uk with the subject “Open Access Feedback”.  There will not be a better chance to influence open-access policy in the UK for years. Here are some other responses from around the Web ... Nearly all these responses are rather long and dry, but let me emphasise again that you don’t have to write a long submission.  If you just send a one-liner, “I endorse the new proposed OA policy”, that’s worth doing. So please, folks.  Do it now, while the call is still open.” Posted by abernard to oa.advocacy oa.consultations oa.policies oa.rcuk oa.uk oa.comment oa.new on Fri Apr 06 2012 at 16:15 UTC | info | related
