    See related JISC Repositories Support Project: http://rspproject.wordpress.com/2011/12/02/unlocking-attitudes-to-open-access-survey-results/In 2011 we ran a survey to find out what researchers in St Andrews think about open access. We asked about attitudes to open access, funding, copyright ownership and use of our digital repository Research@StAndrews:FullText. The survey was part of a national initiative to create a body of evidence about researchers’ attitudes, and will help us develop our services to support research activity in the University. As part of Open Access Week 2011 this report was created to share some of the results, along with some of the actions already taken.Publisher PD

    St Andrews evaluation templates for publisher agreements and open access initiatives

    No full text
    Following the excellent example of the University of Salford at UKSG in 2019, we began using an evaluation template for publishers’ journal agreements. Using the template, evaluation is undertaken by a cross-Library group with representatives from Academic Liaison (collection development/subject knowledge); Acquisitions & E-resources (usage/costs); Open Research (publishing history/funder compliance/OA policies); and the Deputy Director (budget approvals/Library strategy). This approach has been further developed to consider elements of a range of initiatives, including new publishing models such as Subscribe2Open, open infrastructures, collective action, and community frameworks which support OA. A new template has been designed to challenge our thinking and provide a clear analysis of how each model meets our underlying strategy. The detailed questions make sure we can identify the benefits, risks and costs involved.Publisher PD

    See related University of Glasgow BIS report: http://eprints.gla.ac.uk/86332/This report offers a distilled overview of the BIS Open Access Fund allocated to the University of St Andrews 2012-2013. The report includes an outline of APC transactions, APCs by publisher and OA subscriptions and memberships. The document also outlines the workflows needed to manage OA funds, and methods for reporting and monitoring uptake. The experience of managing the BIS fund has proven invaluable in helping the Library to administer the 2013/14 RCUK OA block grant.Publisher PD
