For a piece I'm writing, I'm looking for more detail about the following institutional OA policies. In particular, I'd like to know (1) whether they were adopted by faculty votes and (2) if so, what was the vote tally.
The links point to my blog posts about the policies. The dates are the dates of adoption, not the dates of my posts.
If anyone can help with these details, please drop me a line. I'd be grateful.
The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
