Institutional Drivers for Open Access Research Funders –The Wellcome Trust: “supports unrestricted access to the published output of research as a fundamental part of its charitable mission and a public benefit to be encouraged wherever possible. Specifically, the Wellcome Trust: expects authors of research papers to maximise the opportunities to make their results available for free” –Research Councils UK: “Ideas and knowledge derived from publicly- funded research must be made available and accessible for public use, interrogation and scrutiny, as widely, rapidly and effectively as practicable” Visibility and Impact –Studies have shown a citation advantage for those articles which are freely accessible Management information –Knowing what our researchers are doing
