<font face="Georgia">Dear all,<br>
<br>
</font><font face="Georgia">I am pleased to announce the launch of a
new list designed to share monthly updates, conversations, and
information about the <a href="http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/hoap/Main_Page" target="_blank">Harvard Open
Access Project</a> (HOAP). The Harvard Open Access Project
fosters the growth of open access to research, within Harvard and
beyond, using a combination of consultation, collaboration,
community-building, and direct assistance.<br>
<br>
These updates will be publicly available for community members,
partners, and other interested parties, so feel free to share them
with your networks. </font><font face="Georgia">The first of
these HOAP monthly updates is included below. As the project
continues to evolve, we will share more updates on each of the
items listed below through the email list, project wiki, and other
channels.</font><br>
<font face="Georgia"><br>
<b>To receive monthly updates about HOAP, sign up at <a href="http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/lists/subscribe/hoap" target="_blank">http://cyber.law.harvard.edu/lists/subscribe/hoap</a></b><br>

<span style="vertical-align:baseline;font-variant:normal;font-style:normal;font-size:15px;background-color:transparent;text-decoration:none;font-family:Georgia;font-weight:normal">HOAP
helped muster signatures for a White House petition calling
for a federal OA policy that requires “the published results
of taxpayer-funded research to be posted on the Internet in
human and machine readable form.” According to the petition
site’s rules, any petition that collects 25,000 signatures
in less than 30 days receives an official response from the
Obama administration; the petition reached that mark in just
14 days of its posting. The petition was created by
Access2Research, a group of Open Access advocates that
includes SPARC’s Executive Director, Heather Joseph, and
former Berkman Assistant Director, John Wilbanks. We’re
awaiting the White House response!</span><br>

the ten year anniversary of its landmark convening in 2002,
the Budapest Open Access Initiative (BOAI) reconvened this
February, with plans to release a statement of
recommendations for the next ten years. Peter Suber was the
principal drafter of the BOAI statement ten years ago and is
convening the effort to draft a new statement. In a February
2012 blog post, Melissa Hagemann of the Open Society
Foundations announced and outlined the principles that would
underlie the reconvening:</span><br>

plan to develop a set of recommendations which will help
guide the movement over the next ten years. We will be
exploring issues of sustainability, what we can do to
further support OA in developing and transition countries,
and what implications OA has for measuring the impact of
research, and encouraging its reuse. But just like the
first meeting in Budapest, we will be keeping the agenda
as open as possible. We want to encourage the creative
thinking that led to the conception of Open Access in the
first place, thinking that has inspired a global movement
which cannot now be claimed by any single institution, but
is a testament to the power of a good idea to spread
across institutional boundaries and disciplines.</span></big></p>
