Research funders discuss open access at annual meeting in Berlin

MAY 30, 2013
Physics Today
Science : This week at the second annual meeting of the Global Research Council in Berlin, the major topic for discussion centered on open access (OA) to scientific research results. Because OA policy varies in different parts of the world, the council refrained from making any concrete policy recommendations at this time. It instead proposed raising awareness about and support for OA by developing an action plan toward open access to publications and a list of principles for research integrity directed at funding agencies. Next year’s meeting will be held in Beijing.
