Harvard's Kennedy School adopts an OA mandate Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government has adopted an OA mandate. From today's announcement:
Comment. This is the third Harvard OA mandate, after the mandates at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and the Law School. A fourth is in development at the Medical School. It's also the third Harvard OA mandate adopted by faculty vote. It follows the exemplary pattern of the FAS and Law School policies, requiring OA through the IR but offering the possibility of an op-out (which applies only to OA, not to both OA and deposit). Kudos to Stuart Shieber, the Office of Scholarly Communication, and all involved at the Kennedy School. Update (3/17/09). Also see Andrew Albanese's article in Library Journal:
