A JISC consultation for Internet Archaeology has just been announced. If you work in UK HE/FE then in responding to the consultation and showing your support for Internet Archaeology, you could be helping to secure free, open access to Internet Archaeology for every HE/FE educational institution in the UK.

Every response counts. A strong show of support from the UK academic community could enable the whole of Internet Archaeology's content to become freely available to a huge audience and your library would no longer be required to maintain a subscription to the journal. Essentially, the greater the number of positive replies received, the more secure the future for the journal.
JISC has offered Internet Archaeology a rare opportunity, but it is one that can only be realised with the backing of the people who use the journal. Your response should only take a few minutes to complete, but it will mean a lifetime of access to the journal for the whole UK HE/FE community. If you work in UK HE/FE, I hope that you will lend your voice to the consultation and show your support for the journal. The answers you provide will help to ensure that Internet Archaeology continues to add value to teaching, learning and research in your institution and meets the needs of you and your colleagues.
Please feel free to circulate this announcement to other relevant forums.
