Harvard Open Access Project (HOAP)

Monday, May 21, 2012. Please sign this petition to the White House calling for open access to publicly-funded research in the US. We're aiming for 25k signatures in 30 days, which will trigger an official response from the Obama administration. Thanks to Access2Research.

Goals

To foster OA within Harvard, foster OA beyond Harvard, undertake research and policy analysis on OA, and provide OA to timely and accurate information about OA itself.
