11. Scientific data
“Our vision is a scientific e-infrastructure that
supports seamless access, use, re-use and
trust of data. In a sense … the data themselves
become an infrastructure – a valuable asset on
which science, technology, the economy and
society can advance.” (Neelie Kroes)
Start slowly, pilot, partner and build
infrastructures
H2020 has a proposed DATA PILOT

12. Research Councils UK (RCUK)
Authors must use „RCUK-compliant‟ journals:
Offer a Gold option, or
Where a journal does not offer Gold it must offer
the Green option with an embargo of <6 months
E O S
13. Perverse consequences
Subscription journals lengthen their embargoes
to >6 months
Subscription journals offer a Gold option =
hybrid journals
UK authors must pay for this
No upper limit on APCs
Funds will be given from RCUK to universities
to administer...
This is NOT a policy for others to follow!
