I should be grateful if OAI implementers would advertise this online =
survey to any academic communities they are a part of.  It emanates from =
the UK RoMEO project which aims to ascertain and address the rights =
issues relating to self-archiving.=20

The survey asks academic authors for their views on the copyright in =
their research papers and how they would want their rights to be =
protected in a self-archiving environment.  We are hoping that the =
results will support the development of open-archiving by demonstrating =
exactly what academics are (and are not) concerned about with relation =
to copyright protection of their research.

The questionnaire can be found at =

Many thanks
