Dear Colleagues

 

In the run-up to Open Access Week, 18th-24th October 2010, it would be 
great to raise awareness of the event for a wider community.  We thought 
that one way to achieve this would be by proposing the week as a subject 
for a Google Doodle for their main home page or the home page of Google 
Scholar.  Since Google will receive large numbers of suggestions for 
Doodles it would help if the OA community could join us in lobbying 
Google to consider OA week.

 

To make a suggestion for the Doodle simply email Google at 
proposals at google.com.

 

Suggested email text:

 

The week of October 18th is international Open Access week, with events 
and activities taking place world-wide on university and research 
campuses. We believe that Open Access, researchers making their research 
articles available for free to all,  is an exciting and important shift 
in the availability of research for scholars and the public. We would 
like to support the idea of a Google Doodle on Open Access for this week.

 

 

Regards,

 

                Rob.
