Subject: [cc-affiliates] Fwd: White House petition for public access to research hits goal of 25, 000 signatures
To: "cc affiliates" <cc-affiliates AT lists.ibiblio.org>

FYI--

In two weeks, 25,000 open access advocates signed this White House petition in in support of free public access to publicly funded scientific research. Now the Obama administration will respond to the petition.
