Dear all, Voting is now open until 17.00 CET 20th Nov for our OpenCon London blog competition via this link: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeeHRmdIkkeMJEhtZXgUKGPEkTNlDFrmLqx0xxuzPlkYQOKLA/viewform
Here’s background on the competition, with links to all the entries. To coincide with our OpenCon London satellite event (opencon2017.org/opencon_2017_london) on 21st November, Know-Center, Digital Science and ScienceOpen teamed up with Authorea to announce an essay competition for short blog posts on this year’s Open Access Week theme of “Open in order to …”. This theme was an invitation to answer the question of what concrete benefits can be realized by making scholarly research outputs openly available. We received an awesome response to the competition, with 17 inspiring "open-in-order-to" entries from all over the world. Choose your favourite until 17.00 CET 20th Nov. The winner will be announced the next day at OpenCon London: 1.
