RCUK Policy on Open Access: Compliance data report to Research Councils UK for the period 1 April 2013 to 31 July 2014 from the University of St Andrews

Abstract

In April 2013, the revised Research Councils UK (RCUK) policy on Open Access came into effect; it applies to the publication of peer-reviewed research articles that acknowledge funding from the UK’s Research Councils that are submitted for publication from 1st April 2013, and which are published in journals or conference proceedings. As required by RCUK this compliance data report was produced in September 2014 to help RCUK understand how the University of St Andrews is progressing on implementing the Open Access policy.
