RCUK Research funder Open Access policies • OA policy for many years • Allocates ‘grants’ to institutions to reimburse expenditure on APC’s • If using the gold route you must chose the CC-BY licence • All papers must be deposited in UKPubMed Central • From October 2013 the Wellcome also require monographs to be made OA Wellcome Trust Research funder Open Access policies • Step 1: beneficiaries must deposit a machine-readable electronic copy of the published version or final peer-reviewed manuscript accepted for publication in a repository for scientific publications. This must be done as soon as possible and at the latest upon publication. Moreover, the beneficiary must aim to deposit at the same time the research data needed to validate the results presented in the deposited scientific publications, ideally into a data repository. • Step 2: after depositing publications and, where possible, underlying data, beneficiaries must ensure open access to the deposited publication via the chosen repository. Beneficiaries can choose one of two main ways to comply with this requirement: • Self-archiving / 'green' OA: beneficiaries can deposit the final peer-reviewed manuscript in a repository of their choice[…] they must ensure open access to the publication within a maximum of six months (twelve months for publications in the social sciences and humanities). • Open access publishing / 'gold' OA: researchers can also publish in open access journals, or in[…](hybrid journals). Monographs can also be published either via a 'pure' open access or via a hybrid business model.

What are the consequences if I don’t make my research OA? A1. If you have received funding from a funding body that mandates OA then you need to make the research OA to comply with their policy. If you don’t, getting future funding awards from them may be less likely. Q2. What can I do if my co-authors aren’t interested in making a paper OA? A2. Talk with your co-authors – particularly the lead author/PI - and ask if they have actual objections to making the paper Open Access or if it’s just not something they think is important? If the latter, talk with the corresponding author about how simple it is to make the paper OA via your institutions repository. Offer to do this on behalf of all the authors. Q3. How do I publish in a gold OA journal but I haven’t any funding? A3. Check the journal’s policy on paying for an APC. Some journals will waive the APC fee for author who are unable to pay, such as early careers researchers or those from institutions without sufficient funds. Talk to your research librarians, they may be able to negotiate for you. Q4. How do I handle signing a publisher copyright agreement? A4. As standard, authors grant publisher’s the exclusive rights to reproduce and distribute the full-text of the published paper upon agreeing to publish it. However you can request that a clause is added which enables you to retain your rights. See the SPARC author addendum for a template on how to do this. Q5. What resources exist to help me make my research open access? A5. There are a range of online resources to assist you, notably Sherpa Romeo and Sherpa FACT, for checking publisher policies and compliance. Each institution has research support librarian’s who can help you understand what you are required to do and what your options are, advise and assist you with depositing full-text in the institutions repository, direct you to institutional funds where they exist and you are eligible. Statement of intent re open practices You plan could include things such as : • I will check my funder’s OA policies • I will choose to publish with an OA journal or book publisher • I will try negotiate my right to self archive with my publisher • I will deposit my papers in my institutional repository Keep in touch … Scholarlycommunications@qmul.ac.uk lseresearchonline@lse.ac.uk openaccess@kcl.ac.uk
