[Sigsti-l] OSTP call for public comment on access to data and publications from government funded research (fwd)

[Joe Hourcle]

I don't know how many of you deal with funded research directly, but I'm 
guessing that opening up access to research is a good thing for most of 
us, so I'm passing this along.

Subject: [CNI-ANNOUNCE]  OSTP call for public comment on access to data and
     publications from government funded research

The U.S. Office of Science and Technology Policy  has issued two calls for 
public comment. One deals with policies for access to journal articles 
reporting on federally funded research. This is somewhat similar to a call that 
was issued last year. The second covers policies related preservation, access 
and reuse of data created as part of federally funded research programs.  I 
believe that one or both of these topics are of interest to many institutions 
and individuals within the CNI community, and that our community has a great 
deal of good advice and insight to offer OSTP.

These calls can be found at

and
