Dear all,

The FAO of the United Nations is pleased to invite you to participate
in a survey on Open Access in agriculture and related sciences. This
short survey (less then 10 minutes) is designed to get a detailed
overview of the state of the art of Open Access (OA) and Open Archives
Initiative (OAI) within the Agriculture Research Community.

The survey will be open until the end of January 2010. The results
will be made available online in the CIARD Ring
http://www.ciardring.net/ to give all participants the opportunity to
take a look at and comment the results. The conclusions drawn will be
presented at the IAALD XIIIth World Congress on 26-29 April 2010,
Montpellier, France.

The survey is available in English, French and Spanish at
http://www.ciardring.net/en/survey-oa.

Feel free to forward the URL to anyone you know who may be interested
in contributing.

We would be grateful if you would take the time to complete this
questionnaire. If you have any questions please contact us on
imma.subirats at fao.org

Thank you in advance,

Imma Subirats
