Please send us your OA stories as your contribution to OA week!

"To spread information to developing and emerging regions on the value of OA to research and economic development we need to make a lot of noise [in Open Access Week, October 18-24, 2010]. We need to tell others how free access to research, or distribution of their own research through OA, has changed their work or their career for the better. Here is a request: can you send EPT any stories you can share that show how OA has advanced your work. Has it lead to new contacts? Has it lead to new research partnerships and publications? Has it made you think about the importance of getting your research findings into the global community to help resolve global problems? Has it helped your own career? Has it put your organisation on the global map?..."
