A briefing on open access publishing and Oxford’s position, including guidance on how to comply with the Open Access requirements for the REF 2021 and mandates from key funding bodies whilst respecting your publisher’s rights and policies. It will include Gold and Green routes and Article Processing Charges; Act on Acceptance; and the University policy for the Open Access block grants from RCUK/UKRI and Wellcome/COAF.

The briefing lasts 1 hour and presenters will stay on for 30 minutes at the end for a ‘drop-in’ session to provide hands-on help and advice for anyone with specific issues around open access publishing or depositing their work in ORA.
