Abstract
This spreadsheet lists the publication level data which details how the University of St Andrews has spent centrally managed Open Access (OA) funds. Article Processing Charges (APCs) are reported from the Research Councils UK (RCUK) OA Block Grant, Charity Open Access Fund (COAF), and from a small Library OA Fund (LOAF). The data covers the reporting period for RCUK from 1 April 2017 to 31 March 2018, and the transactions from COAF and LOAF during the same period.
The Library OA Fund is limited to fully OA journals only, where researchers have no other source of funds to pay APCs. In November 2017 the University also limited APCs from RCUK funds to fully OA journals only, in order to stay within funding limits.
