• What do I have to do?• Are there restrictions on my publication
route?• How can I deal with this as quickly as
possible?• Where can I get help?
• Mandates, repositories, open access, copyright - it all has to fit into this . . .
What do funders require?
• Open Access to research results as a condition of funding
• Deposit in a particular repositoryand/or• Deposit in the institutional repositoryand/or• Publication in an Open Access Journal
Impact for institutions
• Response necessary as a requirement of grant
• Competitive advantage for compliance• Strategic alignment with global changes• Requires different service divisions to work
together• Incentive for more closely integrated
knowledge management

collaborate• Policies must have be aligned with
institutional strategy, have purpose, support and consequences
• Authors must be given services that support their needs and fit within their existing work-flows are far as possible
What do we need to do?
• Compliance and support are complimentary• Collaborate on support given to authors• Integrate with funders’ requirements• Create systems for monitoring compliance• Establish major senior support for mandate• “ The system” to provide consistent,
