[Open-access] Fwd: International survey about journal management and Open Access

Mon Mar 31 14:31:12 UTC 2014

Hello everyone,

This survey reminded me of an E-Mail that came from the administration 
within my university just before I subscribed to this list (mid-march). 
I apologize if this was already discussed here. The e-mail asked us to 
contribute to this website: http://www.publikationssystem.de/

Unfortunately it looks there is no English website available. The brief 
summary is that the group ( http://www.bbaw.de/ ) is asking scientists 
what current issues in the publication process within their field are. 
They also offer an export of the current state of the data, here; 
http://www.publikationssystem.de/opendata

I hope any German-speaking readers will consider contributing. After the 
submission period ends (17. April), I'll be happy to contribute some 
time to translate.

Greetings,
Rens van der Heijden
