messo a punto all'interno di questo progetto.
Il questionario fa parte del progetto SOAP  finanziato con fondi europei

Your views on open access publishing are needed!



The SOAP Project (*), funded by the European Commission, would like to 
announce the release of an online survey to assess researchers' 
experiences with open access publishing. This survey aims to inform the 
most comprehensive analysis of attitudes to open access publishing to 
date and is seeking views from a wide a range of interested parties. It 
is primarily aimed at active researchers in public and private 
organizations, from all research fields in science and the humanities 
and focuses on publication of research articles in (open access) 
peer-reviewed journals.



If you would like to contribute to shaping the public discourse on open 
access, please visit http://surveymonkey.com/soap_survey_d. It should 
take 10-15 minutes to complete. We would appreciate if you would share 
this link with your work colleagues and research collaborators so that 
the views of your discipline are properly represented. The survey 
outcome will be made public and the resulting insights as well as 
recommendations will be openly shared with the European Commission and 
other research funding agencies, publishers, and libraries.



(*) Note: The SOAP consortium is coordinated by CERN, the European 
Organization for Nuclear Research. It represents key stakeholders in 
open access, such as publishers BioMedCentral, SAGE and Springer; 
funding agencies (the UK Science and Technology Facilities Council) and 
libraries (the Max Planck Digital Library of the Max Planck Society). 
The project runs for two years, from March 2009 to February 2011.



Thank you in advance on behalf of SPARC Europe and the SOAP Project Team
