Expanded International Electronic Open Access
to the Journal of Wildlife Diseases
In 2006, the WDA in conjunction with sponsorship from
the Wildlife Conservation Society Global Health Program [WCS – GHP]
initiated complete open access of the Journal of Wildlife Diseases to
people in the 113 countries of the world with the least economically
developed economies. In August 2009, the WDA Council voted to expand
free access for a five year trial period to people in Mexico, Central
America and South America.
The WDA continues to enjoy and appreciate the
co-sponsorship of this initiate with the WCS – GHP. The 2009 decision
now provides open electronic access to the Journal in 135 countries of
the world, countries that represent 75% of the world population and few
of which have wildlife health programs. As the members who comprise the
Association, we should be pleased with the extent to which this
distribution addresses our mission ‘to acquire, disseminate and apply
knowledge’ about health of wildlife!
