Open Access (OA) enables research to meet its full potential by maximising its dissemination and, therefore, usage. This access model is, however, a relatively new one which brings with it a number of challenges, not least of how to manage copyright in the OA environment in a fair and balanced way.
This web site, created as part of the JISC-SURF 'Partnering On Copyright' programme, aims to contribute to a better understanding and awareness of copyright issues regarding OA through the provision of information resources for academic authors, HEI managers and librarians/institutional repository (IR) managers.
Resources include information on OA, self-archiving and copyright targeted at particular stakeholders and also brief general guides on these issues. Practical digital tools have also been created as part of the programme, which can be actively used in order to help encourage, promote and, ultimately, achieve the goal of OA.
