The OpenAccess.se programme✎

SUMMARY ✎
The programme OpenAccess.se promotes Open Access to the works produced by Swedish researchers, teachers and students. We accomplish this by supporting Open Access publishing in OA repositories and OA journals at Swedish institutions of higher education.
We work with:
- information and advice
- development of infrastructure and services
- coordination of policy
The OpenAccess.se programme is also acting as Swedish node in the EU-funded project OpenAIRE.
In collaboration with the National Library of Sweden the Swedish Research Council has produced a proposal for national guidelines for both scientific publications/artistic works and research data. The proposal, which also contains recommendations on what needs to be further investigated, was submitted to the Government in January 2015.
The programme OpenAccess.se has arranged “Meeting Place Open Access” conferences for a number of years. Meeting Place Open Access (MOA) is the major annual conference in Sweden for anyone working with and interested in issues concerning open access and scholarly publishing. Presentations and documentation from previous conferences are available through this link (in Swedish and English).
The programme OpenAccess.se has been financing a number of OA-related projects as a part of the general project funding from the National Library of Sweden. More info here
