[BOAI] New wiki for academic research summaries -- help contribute to open access!

[Brevy Org]

Hello everyone!

I'm glad to have found this mailing list of the like-minded. Myself (Josh)
and a small ragtag team are attempting another means of supporting open
access endeavors and we need your help! We've recently launched:

http://brevy.org

which is a guided-interface wiki to collect open access summaries (and to
some extent, discussion and critiques) of academic literature. Brevy
handles a lot of things for you automatically, so it's easy to add a quick
summary without any web/coding knowledge.

To get this going, we really could use the help of the open access
community to start populating the wiki with a pool of summaries. Here's a
couple a couple of ways to help:

   - Add a summary of your work or the most significant research in your
   field!
   - Assign making a summary as part of any courses you might teach (great
   way to introduce students to real research)
   - Encourage your colleagues, especially any professors, to add summaries
   or have their classes do so as well
   - Share it on social media or relevant mailing lists


Thanks, and let me know if there's any questions!
