Global approach to open access Asia Pacific •China: CAS & NSF; gold or green open access, deposit within 12 months •ARC & NHMRC in Australia have 12 month self-archive mandate, as does A*Star in Singapore •Other funders considering policy Africa •Developing repositories •Publishers enabling philanthropic access •New open access journals to support local research needs •Some institutions have open access mandates, but no policies from any funders or Governments Europe •UK funder mandates focused on gold (Research Councils UK & Wellcome Trust) •VSNU driving expansion in gold open access •Green open access mandates in Italy & Spain •All EU members formulating open access policies at either national, funder or institutional level. North America and Canada •US Federal Agencies formulating policies following OSTP memo e.g. • NIH: gold or green; deposit to PMC within 12 months • DOE: green (or gold); public access within 12 months via PAGES and CHORUS • NSF: gold or green; public access within 12 months • CHORUS working with DOD, DOE, NSF, etc. •Canada active in OA discussions and looking at gold and green • Tri-Agency policy: gold or 12 month deposit mandate • Gates Foundation: gold open access Latin America •Focus on green open access •Argentina: MINCYT introduced 6 month deposit mandate •Brazil: Government formulating green open access policy •Mexico: OA legislation passed to support repository development Slide courtesy of Alicia Wise, Elsevier, with slight adaptations.
