Colleagues,
An email petition drive is underway to request that APA remove all financial
barriers to full and free access to online APA publications, abstracts and
indices for professionals and the public.
Suggested text for the email may be viewed at
http://www.mentalhealth-madison.com/Documents/APA_petition_letter.htm
We have seen and heard this idea discussed in many other forums, and we
believe there is broad support for allowing full and free access to online
APA publications and scientific psychological literature. We also believe
any
potential financial loss this might generate for APA would be repaid many
times over by the increased public regard of APA as a source of reliable and
useful psychological information, and increased public esteem of
psychologists across the country.
If you wish to support this endeavor, go to the web location above (just
click on the link), and follow the instructions there. Your few mouse
clicks may well contribute to opening up access to the scientific
psychological
literature for your colleagues and for the public! And pass this on to
other colleagues.
Thank you,
Rees Chapman, PhD and Gordon Herz, PhD
