Open Government = Open Access?

摘要

Soon after taking office in January 2009, President Obama instructed the Office of Management and Budget to issue an Open Government Directive. The directive, which was "informed by recommendations" from the newly created position of Federal Chief Technology Officer, directed executive departments and agencies "to take specific actions to implement the principles of transparency, participation, and collaboration set forth in the President's Memorandum." Last December, the White House began seeking comments on plans to make federally funded research available for public access.
