[Irtalk] Effects of Open Access Mandate Strength on Deposit Rate and Latency - ePrints Soton

[Hilton Gibson]

Access-denial because of the high cost of journal subscriptions is a major
obstacle to the progress of research, universities and research funders
need to adopt mandates that require their researchers to make their
published papers Open Access (OA) by depositing them in their Institutional
Repositories.
*To measure the effectiveness of these mandates MELIBEA has ranked and
weighted OA mandates according to their specific requirements, and assigned
them an overall score for strength.​*
