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 • 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
Open Access Archiving The ideal publications archiving policy has three key parts: Whether to archive: Deposit required What to archive: The full final version When to archive: On publication
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:
Numbers • 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 . . .
