The US Government Accountability Office (#GAO) just reviewed the #OpenAccess policies at nine federal agencies.
https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-26-107738A few highlights:
* Among other things, GAO looked for compliance with the #NelsonMemo. This is further evidence that the #Trump admin supports the memo.
* It encourages #NSF and #USDA to go further to ensure #reuse rights. (That would be good.) But it assumes that the other agencies are already doing enough to ensure reuse rights. (I can't agree with this.)
* It praises #NIH for taking steps to reduce money spent on grantee #APCs, and encourages other agencies to follow the NIH lead on this.
* In a few places it leaves the false impression (1) that all OA journals charge APCs and (2) that all publishers are responding the federal policies by charging APCs to publish fed-funded research.

"Democracy runs on information. ... Transparency isn't a feature of Aotearoa New Zealand's democracy; it's the foundation of it.
...
Speaking technically, it is easy enough to bypass, but the real problem isn't really a technical one. The problem is that a decision was made, somewhere inside the Parliamentary Service, that automated access to public parliamentary data should be treated as a threat."#Aotearoa #NZPol #PublicInformation #PublicAccess #RSS #CivicTech

Good Morning Folks! I don't normally do Saturday posts, but last night was our semi-monthly play session for #PublicAccess, and I talked about some of the adventures we have been getting up to. My character the Burned-Out Punk and the Professional Athelete, have developed this whole buddy cop movie thing, which is funny.

Fascinating read about 20+ years of work leading up to the 2022 OSTP Nelson memo, ensuring taxpayer-funded research is immediately available to the public to freely access & fully use. Includes mention of SPARC's advocacy in #PublicAccess #OpenAccess #OpenScience.

The #Canadian Association for Work and #Labour Studies #CAWLS is calling on the federal government to immediately restore #PublicAccess to #DataTracking work stoppages and to collect more information on #LabourRelations.
It has now been over three months since Employment and Social Development Canada #ESDC quietly removed data tracking work stoppages from its website. This move also affected #StatisticsCanada tables which report strike and lockout numbers historically. The removal of these #data deprives #researchers and #unions of critical information.
