Hi, Victoria. Your message did get through, I think it unfortunately just didn't attract any replies!

The best person to talk to about OA advocacy in the humanities is probably Martin Eve, who is involved in the Open Library of Humanities project and has written extensively on OA from the HSS perspective.
You can reach him on <martin at martineve.com>; if I know him, he'll be happy to help you out.
