From: Les A Carr <[log in to unmask]> Date: Fri, 3 Feb 2012 09:37:23 +0000 So far only 3300 people have signed the petition (385 per day in the last week), so it doesn't seem to be taking off in a significant way. From the UK's perspective, there have been 159 signatories all told from 27 institutions. Having checked the 28 signatories from the most represented institution I can reveal (to almost no-one's surprise) that they are not only "not reviewing", "not publishing" and "not doing editorial work", they are also "not using their IR" (only 5 have ever put anything in their repository). (Disclaimer: I haven't checked websites, Mendeley, arxiv or other sources of OA, and neither have I checked whether all the signatories are PhD students / undergraduates or others.) -- Les Carr
