Open Access What it is & What it’s not

• Term “Open Access” refers to research and knowledge works derived from publicly funded research

• Bank’s Open Access Policy ≠ Bank’s Access to Information Policy

• Open Access ≠ Public Domain

OA Gaining Momentum

• US: White House Policy Memorandum “ Expanding Public Access to the Results of Federally Funded Research” (February, 2013)

• US: Congress Bill “Fair Access to Science and Technology Research Act (FASTR)” (February, 2013)

• UK: Research Councils UK Policy on Open Access (effective April 2013)

• EU: Horizon 2020 (80 billion Euro research fund) should mandate OA (TBD end of 2013)

• Part 2 Countries: OA Policies discussed, or approved, in India, Sri Lanka, Kenya, Argentina, and Peru

• At IGOs: World Bank (July 2012), CERN (March 2005), UNESCO (May 2013)
