Funders and Open Access

• Open Access to research– Benefits for funders and researchers– Opens new readers and uses– Assists information management– . . . but slow to reach the tipping point

• Funders have recognised:– the benefits of OA for their work– their position allows them to gain those benefits by

working with researchers – released policies which need action

• JULIET lists funding bodies policies on open access through archiving, publication and data exposure

A companion to RoMEO . . .• JULIET tells you what funders require you to do

with your research . . . • RoMEO tells you which journals will let you do it.

JULIET

• Analyses funding agency policies and research contracts

• Summarises conditions relating to Open Access to research outputs

• Grades policies according to the requirements• Used by repository managers; research

managers; researchers; research support offices; funders and publishers

• Assists compliance, workflows and policy development

JULIET

Whether to archive: Deposit required

What to archive: The full final version

When to archive: On publication

The ideal publications archiving policy has three key parts:

Open Access Archiving

Open Access Publishing

Whether to publish: Publication in Open Access Journal or Hybrid Journal required

An Open Access Publications policy gives, by definition, open access

Open Access Data

Whether to archive: Data archiving required

When to archive: Within five years

Open Access to Data has diverse interpretations. JULIET reflects identified ideal practice:

• NIH request had low compliance ~ 5%– requirements imply close compliance– need work-flows and support to build that compliance

• JULIET lists 31 funding agencies– 25 have archiving requirements– 7 have data requirements

• 6 of 7 RCUK have archiving requirements• 36 of 38 Russell/1994 Group have repositories• Tipping point in sight . . .
