The Open Access Day blogging competition is now over. We received over 40 excellent entries that took quite a nice chunk of last night to read – they are all good so go and read them all.
In the end, we decided that one prize is not enough and are awarding the First Place to two bloggers:
Dorothea Salo, for her post: My Father the Anthropologist; or, What I Offer Open Access and Why (already cross-posted on the PloS Blog and soon will be posted here and a couple of other places). Dorothea is the Digital Repository Librarian at the University of Wisconsin, where she serves the state university system’s consortial institutional repository, MINDS@UW.
Greg Laden for A poem for Open Access Day. Also, the cross-posts will happen very soon (the first one, on the PLoS Blog is here). Greg is a SciBling, an archaeologist and anthropologist, and a part time independent scholar and part time adviser with the Program for Individualized Learning, University of Minnesota.
Congratulations to the winners, and congratulations to all the contestants for a great day of synchroblogging!
