US Gov Requests Feedback on Open Access â ACM Gets it Wrong (Again)

,----[ Quote ]
| In 2008, legislation was passed requiring all 
| NIH-funded researchers to submit their papers 
| to an openly available repository within a 
| year of publication.  Even this modest step 
| towards full open access was immediately 
| attacked by rent-seeking scientific 
| publishers.

U.S. research should be open access

,----[ Quote ]
| The Office of Science and Technology Policy
| (OSTP) has launched a âpublic consultation on
| Public Access Policyâ, to see if research
| funded by U.S. grants should be made
| available as open access results. I think
| this is important â I believe publicly-funded
| unclassified research should actually be made
| available to the public.
