Funders should require immediate open access, say cOAlition S leaders
by Subbiah Arunachalam 18 Aug '22

18 Aug '22

Friends, Robert Kiley and Johan Rooryck of cOAlition S (which is behind Plan S) suggest that "research funders should simply require that the outputs of the research they fund are made openly available at the time of publication and published with an open licence (CC BY). This licence allows others to build on this research (subject to the norms of academic attribution) without having to seek permission or pay any licence fees." Even without a prod from funders, Indian researchers would do well to make their publications openly available, and stop publishing papers in journals charging APC.

Friends, I know the people served by most members of this Forum are researchers and students in the areas of science, technology and medicine. There is, however, a substantial number of students, teachers and researchers in the fields of humanities and social sciences in India (even if they are often treated as poor cousins), and there are libraries and information centres and services catering to their needs. Here is something the HSS community will find useful. http://newsbreaks.infotoday.com/NewsBreaks/The-Best-Open-Tools-for-Discover… Arun -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
