30. Important to know
According to Swiss Code of Obligations, Art. 382, Par. 3,

31. Guidelines ETH
The ETH Zurich requires of staff and postgraduate students to
post electronic copies of any research papers that have been
accepted for publication in a peer-reviewed journal (post-prints),
theses and other scientific research output (monographs,
reports, proceedings, videos etc.), to be made freely available as
soon as possible into the institutional repository ETH E-
Collection, if there are no legal objections.

32. Guidelines SNSF (since 2007)
The SNSF requires grantees to provide open access to research
results obtained with the help of SNSF grants (Article 44 Funding
Regulations).

36. Open Access in Horizon 2020
36 http://europa.eu/rapid/pressReleasesAction.do?reference=IP/12/790&format=HTML&aged=0&language=EN&guiLanguage=en
Open access to scientific publications a general principle of Horizon
2020.
As of 2014, all articles produced with funding from Horizon 2020 will
have to be accessible:
Articles will either immediately be made accessible online by the
publisher ('Gold' open access) - up-front publication costs can be eligible
for reimbursement by the European Commission; or
researchers will make their articles available through an open access
repository no later than six months (12 months for articles in the fields of
social sciences and humanities) after publication ('Green' open access).
The goal is for 60% of European publicly-funded research articles to be
available under open access by 2016.

„For one thing, it will demonstrate that a major publishing house
can produce a high-quality journal with high-quality formatting
and editing with APCs of around £500. I hope that people in
charge of funding bodies who are considering open-access
mandates will ask some tough questions of publishers who
continue to charge four times that.

(APC = Article Processing Charges)
Study Solomon and Björk (2012)
• APCs between $8 and $3900, Average: $906
SCOAP3 transformed OA-Journals starting in 2014:
• APCs between $600 and $2270, Average: $1550
• Physical Review Letters wanted $2700 as APC and therefore was not considered for the
agreement.
Results from PEER (Publishing and the Ecology of European Research):
• Peer Review: $250 / article
• Production cost: $170-$400 / article
• Cost of plattform development: $170‘000 - $400‘000

The Commission will also start experimenting with open
access to the data collected during publicly funded
research (e.g. the numerical results of experiments), taking
into account legitimate concerns related to the fundee's
commercial interests or to privacy.
The European Commission will continue to fund projects
related to open access. In 2012-2013, the Commission will
spend €45 million on data infrastructures and research on
digital preservation. Funding will continue under the
Horizon 2020 programme. During the same period, the
Commission will support experimentation with new ways of
handling scientific information (e.g. new peer-review
methods and ways of measuring article impact).

According to SNSF (Fabian Jeker, 14.8.12)
„Die Open Access Regelung des SNF betrifft nur Publikationen.
Der SNF ist sich der Bedeutung von Open Access zu Research
Data / Primärdaten bewusst und verfolgt die Entwicklung des
Themas. Doch kommt dem SNF dabei nur eine subsidiäre Rolle
zu. Gemäss Art. 43 Beitragsreglement sind die Rechte an den
Forschungsresultaten zwischen den Beitragsempfängerinnnen
und Beitragsempfängern und deren Arbeitgebern zu regeln.“

(CHALLENGE 2), AND "SOCIOECONOMIC SCIENCES AND THE HUMANITIES", AS WELL AS TO THE
ACTIVITIES "RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURES" (E-INFRASTRUCTURES), AND "SCIENCE IN SOCIETY")
In addition to Article II.30.4, beneficiaries shall deposit an electronic copy of the
published version or the final manuscript accepted for publication of a scientific
publication relating to foreground published before or after the final report in an
institutional or subject-based repository at the moment of publication.
Beneficiaries are required to make their best efforts to ensure that this electronic copy becomes
freely and electronically available to anyone through this repository:
• immediately if the scientific publication is published "open access", i.e. if an electronic version
is also available free of charge via the publisher, or
• within [X] months of publication.
The number X will be 6 months in the thematic areas "Health", "Energy", "Environment (including Climate Change)",
and "Information & communication technologies" (Challenge 2) and the activity "Research infrastructures" (e-
infrastructures), and 12 months in the thematic area "Socio-economic Sciences and the Humanities" and the activity
"Science in Society".
