Dear All Following on from Kudzai's comment, I'd just like to remind everyone that Routledge currently have an 'open access for all' offer on ALL their education journals at www.educationarena.com/effa. This includes Disability and Society http://bit.ly/gsfiT1 (thanks to Mark Priestly for first raising this). The journals are only freely available until the end of April, so there is less than a week left. If you are outside academia, this is a great opportunity to search for useful papers and download what you find. On an additional note, May 1st is Blogging Against Disablism day, an online blog event. If you are interested in finding out more, visit the Goldfish's blog: http://bit.ly/hvM6Aj Best wishes Sarah Sarah Lewthwaite Learning Sciences Research Institute (LSRI) School of Education, University of Nottingham Email: [log in to unmask] Blog: http://slewth.wordpress.com/ Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/slewth -----Original Message----- From: The Disability-Research Discussion List [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Kudzie shava Sent: 25 April 2011 06:40 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Re: [IDA_CRPD_Forum] Book on UN CRPD Dear frank and all colleagues, thanks a lot for pointing some of us to this book which we can access freely as we cannot really afford buying such useful materials on the burgeoning discipline of disability. I will indeed greatly appreciate it if anyone either sends me as attachments, or point me to freely accessible materials which can help me in my continuous engagement with contemporary knowledge and developments in this area.
