What is Open Access?Simple Definition:
Open-access (OA) literature is digital, online, free of charge, and free of most copyright and licensing restrictions

What is Open Access?Full Definition:“… free availability on the public internet, permitting any users to read, download, copy, distribute, print, search, or link to the full texts of these articles, crawl them for indexing, pass them as data to software, or use them for any other lawful purpose, without financial, legal, or technical barriers other than those inseparable from gaining access to the internet itself. The only constraint on reproduction and distribution, and the only role for copyright in this domain, should be to give authors control over the integrity of their work and the right to be properly acknowledged and cited.”

Why is OA important?
• Ensures access to all researchers, rather than what they (or their school) can afford
• Enhances interdisciplinary research
• Can increase the visibility, readership and impact of author’s works
• Public funding = public access to results

EU and UK – OA progress
