[Irtalk] RCUK Policy on Open Access - RCUK

[Hilton Gibson]

Free and open access to publicly-funded research offers significant social
and economic benefits. The Government, in line with its overarching
commitment to transparency and open data, is committed to ensuring that
such research should be freely accessible. As major bodies charged with
investing public money in research, the Research Councils take very
seriously their responsibilities in making the outputs from this research
publicly available – not just to other researchers, but also to potential
users in business, charitable and public sectors, and to the general public.
