<br>
We're on our way to surpassing 20,000 signatures on the White House Open Access petition - in just one week! - and we need your help to close this out successfully.<br>
<br>
To help drive this effort home, please consider sending out one more email blast to your contact lists. This is a truly effective way of not only getting the word out, but also of showing your support. Consider a "+1" email request - encouraging those on
your network who have already signed to recruit a friend or colleague to sign, to be their "+1." It's a great way to include new voices into the mix!<br>
<br>
Our social media efforts have been phenomenally effective - Twitter is aglow with references to <a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/search/%23openaccess" target="_blank">#openaccess</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/search/%23OAMonday" target="_blank">#OAMonday</a> so
please use these hashtags if you tweet. Facebook is also a great way of getting the petition link out to all of your friends - you can add a link directly to the petition in your Facebook posting to make it easy for folks to sign.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
