Diese Petition wollte ich eigentlich schon viel früher bloggen: Petition for guaranteed public access to publicly-funded research results.

This petition is directed to the European Commission. Its goal is to endorse the recommendations made in the „Study on the Economic and Technical Evolution of the Scientific Publication Markets of Europe“ in full, in particular to adopt the first recommendation A1 as a matter of urgency.

I urge decision-makers at all levels in Europe to endorse the recommendations made in the Study on the Economic and Technical Evolution of the Scientific Publication Markets of Europe in full, in particular to adopt the first recommendation A1 as a matter of urgency.
