    栗山先生

    　内島です。転送ありがとうございます。ちょっと、オーバーな反応ですね。
    しかし、北大とか日本が義務化に向かっているような印象を世界に与えていないか
    ちょっと、心配です。特に北大。

    　しかし、ハーナッド教授が言っているように、ROARに登録していない１５８大学の
    残りの皆様、是非、ROAR、OpenDOARなどに登録しましょう。それで、急激に増えたら、
    また、JISCでちゃっかり広報しちゃいましょう。

    >>   So I used figures from the period between January to December in 2009 for the comparison below.

    >>  On the other hand, according to ISI Thomson-Reuter's Global Reseach Report Japan (published this June),

    >>  Judging from the ratio above, our IR communities will have to carry out as many advocacies as possilbe toward academics
    >> now and in the future. I'd think it would be a common task for repository and research communities around the globe.

    >>  As you might know, I hear Hokkaido University (one of top 10 universities in Japan and hosting IR named HUSCAP) is now

    >>> There are already 170 self-archiving mandates worldwide registered in ROARMAP -- 96 institutional, 24 departmental and 46
