Your views on open access publishing are needed!
The SOAP Project (*) is currently conducting an online survey to assess
researchers experiences with open access publishing. This survey
aims to inform the most comprehensive analysis of attitudes to open access
publishing to date and is seeking views from a wide a range of interested
parties. It is primarily aimed at active researchers in public and private
organizations, from all fields of the research in the sciences and
humanities and focuses on publication of research articles in (open
access) peer-reviewed journals.
If you would like to contribute to shaping the public discourse on open
access, please visit
http://surveymonkey.com/soap_survey_g
It should take 10-15 minutes to complete. Please share this news with your
research collaborators, so that the views from your community will be
properly represented.
The survey outcome will be made public and openly shared with the
publishers, research funding agencies and European Commission, libraries
and researchers.
Thanks in advance, the SOAP Project Team
(*) Note: The SOAP consortium is funded by the European Commission and
coordinated by CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. It
represents key stakeholders in open access, such as publishers BioMed
Central, SAGE and Springer; funding agencies (the UK Science and
Technology Facilities Council) and libraries (the Max Planck Digital
Library of the Max Planck Society). The project runs for two years, from
March 2009 to February 2011.
