[Irtalk] A boost for open access to research - The Research Council of Norway

[Hilton Gibson]

The Research Council of Norway is introducing a new, five-year funding
scheme that will cover a significant share of the costs incurred by
research institutions for publication in open access journals.

“With this scheme we hope to facilitate a more rapid transition to open
access publishing of Norwegian research. This is important for giving all
interested parties free access to new research results as soon as they are
published,” says Arvid Hallén, Director General of the Research Council.
