<b>Festival Volunteers Needed </b><br>
Saturday, May 30, and Sunday, May 31, Public Affairs requests your
help staffing its outreach tent at the Hampton Blackbeard Pirate
Festival. Through the new festival program, we hope to spread
awareness in Hampton Roads about Jefferson Lab's work and its role
in the national lab system. You'll help by assisting with children's
activities, talking about the lab and handing out information. On
each of the two days, Public Affairs will need volunteer help in
four-hour blocks: from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m.
If you can join us, please e-mail Mike Robbins at <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:mrobbins@jlab.org">mrobbins@jlab.org</a>
or call x7617.<br>

<b>Lab-wide Annual Property Inventory Will Take Place June 1 – July
31</b><br>
The laboratory’s annual property inventory will start the week of
June 1 and run through July 31, 2015. The property manager has
randomly selected 20 percent of Jefferson Lab's property custodians
for this year's property inventory. Those custodians will be
contacted by a member of the property staff. Any custodians that did
not complete their annual property validation will also be included
in the inventory group for this year. As of May 19, seventy-one
individuals still needed to complete their property validation and
175 staff and Users still needed to complete their key validation.
For details, see the full brief at:

<b>JLab Implements Process to Improve Public Access to Research
Results</b><br>
In October 2014, the Department of Energy began implementing its
Public Access Plan across the DOE complex. This requirement stems
from a Feb. 22, 2013 memorandum titled, "Increasing Access to the
Results of Federally Funded Scientific Research," in which the
federal government directed federal agencies to develop and
implement plans for increasing public access to the full-text
versions of final, peer-reviewed publications and digital research
data resulting from agency funded research. Public Access, or
Open-Access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge, and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions to readers. All
authors of lab research results are asked to follow this process,
which is posted online at:
