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 Ro. MEO. . . • JULIET tells you what funders require you to do with your research. . . • Ro. MEO 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; 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 An Open Access Publications policy gives, by definition, open access Whether to publish: Publication in Open Access Journal or Hybrid Journal required

Open Access Data Open Access to Data has diverse interpretations. JULIET reflects identified ideal practice: Whether to archive: Data archiving required When to archive: Within five years

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. . .
